Commandment
A commandment often touches the pull of a stronger will or a higher law upon your own judgment. The dream may ask where you're being shaped by influences firmer than yourself, whether you're being led wisely or into error, and what counsel you'd need to find your own footing again.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for commandment, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of receiving commands, foretells you will be unwisely influenced by persons of stronger will than your own. To read or hear the Ten Commandments read, denotes you will fall into errors from which you will hardly escape, even with the counsels of friends of wise and unerring judgment.
