6 0

The major effect of the Awakening was a rebellion against authoritarian religious rule which spilled over into other areas of colonial life. Amidst the growing population of the colonies within the 18th Century and mass public gatherings, charismatic personalities such as Whitefield and Tennent rolled through to deliver their messages. Though a religious movement, the Awakening had repercussions in cultural and political spheres as well. Customs of civility and courtesy, the governing norms of life in the colonies, were set aside in favor of a more quarrelsome age. Practices and mind-sets were changed by the Awakening like never before.

Answer: D. The Ten Commandments

The ancient Hebrew Bible began with the "Torah," that is, "The Law," which was given through the leader of Israel, Moses. Most of us are familiar with the Ten Commandments as given to Israel through Moses. (Maybe you've even seen the classic 1956 movie, The Ten Commandments, starring Charlton Heston.) Those famous "Ten Commandments" are essentially a concise summary of God's moral law for his people. The religion of Judaism was built on moral commands and human beings' ethical obligation to obey them. In fact, beyond those major summaries of God's law in the Ten Commandments, the Jewish rabbis counted a total of 613 commands given in the Torah (the books of Moses). The basic ethical foundation of Judaism is still respected as a primary reason to view the religion of Judaism as important and influential.
