Nothing seems so perplexing to both the U.S. Supreme Court and the American public than whether a display of the Ten Commandments on government property is legal and/or moral. In recent history, Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore was removed from office for refusing to remove a stone monument of the Ten Commandments from the rotunda of the Alabama Supreme Court building.

Supreme Court justices have refused to revisit issues raised by their 1980 decision that banned the posting of the Ten Commandments in public schools. Recently, however, the U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to take up the constitutionality of Ten Commandments displays on government land and buildings.

Enter irony: There's a large relief of Moses with the Ten Commandments inside the Supreme Court's courtroom, an imposing sculpture of Moses with the Ten Commandments in the center of the frieze on the rear facade of the Supreme Court building and a statue of Moses bearing the Ten Commandments in the rotunda of the Library of Congress next door.

God, in Psalm 119:19, provides a solution for this enigma: "Do not hide Your commandments from me."
