Is anyone interested in starting a Bible Study together?
I don't have any experience leading a Bible Study, but I think it could be a lot of fun to start one with some followers of Christ on here!

No. I'm sure you know the answer but you don't have the correct perspective to make the connection.
You are familar with the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew chapters 5-7).
Notice Matthew 5:1-2 (NKJV) = "5 And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him. 2 Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying:"
In Matthew chapter 14 Jesus fed about five thousand men, besides women and children, with five loaves and two fish.
Then there is the time he fed about four thousand men, besides women and children, with the seven loaves and a few fish (Matthew 15:29-39).
Matthew 15:30-31 (NKJV) = "30 Then great multitudes came to Him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, [a]maimed, and many others; and they laid them down at Jesus’ feet, and He healed them. 31 So the multitude marveled when they saw the mute speaking, the [b]maimed made whole, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they glorified the God of Israel."
Those three events satisfy the 7th Commandment, where the multitudes appear before Jesus and recognize him as the Lord and he heals them and teaches them.
So, when you know what the real Ten Commandments are, you can link them to the stories in the Old and New Testament without any trouble. That shows the creativity of the writers.
If you want to have some fun, identify the stories in the New Testament that illustrate the 10th Commandment = Exodus 34:26 (ERV) = “Never cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.”
Note that Exodus 34:26 includes the 9th and 10th Commandments . The 9th is the first sentence and the 10th is the second sentence.
