Did the Yidden actually receive 10 Commandments or were they actually statements – after all the word, ‘Dibrot’, literally translates as ‘statements’?…
Anochi is understood to be a mitzvah to have emunah, and the rest are obviously commandments, so other than semantics, is there a nafka mina?
I don’t remember which Sefer of counting of Mitsvot, but it is listed as 14 Mitsvot.
Calling the Aseres Hadibros the “Ten Commandments” is a term coined by the non-Jews.
The Torah is Sefer Devorim several times addresses them as “Asseres haDevorim”
Then when you consult Sefer haChinuch, you shall note that the Asseres haDibros do contain 14 Mitzvos [precepts].
