the big 10 are to people as individuals and not nations. Now the 10 , it is a good basis of common law , but as far a governments job is like a husbands job or like the churches Job. their job and sometimes their only value is protection from evil ( as God defines evil , not as swishy or wishy washy men might ) . at the foot of the mountain The Lord made individuals first agree to that law , then as a nation. but protection is GOD"S LOVE also, people don't want to deal with that , because they have always had his protection from evil and don't have a clue what it means to not have it. but humanity just might yet learn that lesson.
edited to say ... God made Rome Israel's husband. WHY ? because they must of been bad husbands(by government and their religious) and women and children and families were not being protected but exploited .
Even the Sanhedrin believed that if a Sanhedrin sentenced one person to death is 70 years, then it was a murderous Sanhedrin, and no one wanted to be any part of that...

No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
5 Peter was therefore kept in prison, but constant [a]_[+] prayer was offered to God for him by the church. 6 And when Herod was about to bring him out, that night Peter was sleeping, bound with two chains between two soldiers; and the guards before the door were keeping the prison. 7 Now behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the prison; and he struck Peter on the side and raised him up, saying, “Arise quickly!” And his chains fell off his hands. 8 Then the angel said to him, “Gird yourself and tie on your sandals”; and so he did. And he said to him, “Put on your garment and follow me.” 9 So he went out and followed him, and did not know that what was done by the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision. 10 When they were past the first and the second guard posts, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city, which opened to them of its own accord; and they went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.

And now fear the Lord, and serve Him in sincerity and in truth; and remove the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the river and in Egypt, and serve the Lord.
