An Instruction Given by One in Authority, who can Demand Obedience.

A collection of commandments becomes a law. God gave His people Israel a law to live by, which is called the 'Law of Moses'.
"So Moses went back and summoned the elders of the people and set before them all the words the Lord had commanded him to speak. The people all responded together 'We will do everything the Lord has said.'" (Exodus 19:7-8).

This law is summarised as the 'Ten Commandments' (Exodus 20:1-17, q.v.).

Jesus taught that the whole law of God would be kept in spirit, if only men and women loved God and their neighbours as themselves (see Matthew 22:36-40). Jesus gave his disciples and all Christians a 'new' commandment: this new law of Christ is comprehensive and binding in its requirements for the Christian disciple: "A new commandment I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another." (John 13:34).
