The genius of the Ten Commandments--whether intentional or not--is that
there are ten proscriptions, and everything else is OK. The Bill of
Rights is similar, providing protections, but needed elaboration, hence
the current number of Constitutional Amendments to protect the rights of
individuals and minorities.
For those who aren't familiar with the rest of the commandments, there
were actually over 600. We're lucky that K.I.S.S. weeded out most of the
noxious ones, mostly from Leviticus. Or Moses got tired of chiseling
into stone when he got to ten.

It was also proscriptive.

Lest we forget, the Ten Commandments is "regulation."
