Commandment 1

I AM THE LORD THY GOD WHO BROUGHT THEE OUT OF THE LAND OF EGYPT.
The Ten Commandments (1933) by Alexander Katz (1895-1974)

Commentary by Rabbi Alexander S. Kline
The print depicts Mt. Sinai in mystic setting and 
an abstract pattern of symbols for the name of GOD 
which rises in a crescendo of forms to finally unite 
to spell the word "Echod"--One.
