13. There are multiple versions of the commandments in

Bible. I suppose their knowledge of the Old Testament comes from Cecil b demille.

The Hebrew Bible contains three versions of the Ten Commandments, also known as the Decalogue, which are religious and ethical directives given by Yahweh to Moses:
Exodus 20:1–17
The first version is considered the basic commandments that most people know.
Exodus 34:10–26
The second version, known as the "Ritual Decalogue", is significantly different from the first.
Deuteronomy 5:6–21
The third version is almost identical to the first, with only a few minor differences.
