[Avodah] Interesting Yisro Tidbits

[Cantor Wolberg]

There are 620 letters in the Aseret HaDibrot of Yitro. (TARYAG + 7  
Rabbinic Mitvot.)

The Shabbos commandment consists of 32% of the words of the Aseres  
HaDibros, even more than the Avoda Zara, commandment #2 (29%).
AND...The letter ZAYIN appears only once - ZACHOR. Appropriate for  
Shabbat to begin with ZAYIN, whose numeric value is 7. Also, as the  
Baal HaTurim points out,
the Shabbos commandment begins with the 7th pasuk of Aseres HaDibros.
