Is the word commandments (as in ten commandments) capitalized?

It depends on the context:

Capitalized:

* When referring to the specific Ten Commandments: "The Ten Commandments are a set of religious laws."

* When used as a formal title: "The Book of Commandments"

Not capitalized:

* When referring to commandments in general: "Many religions have commandments for their followers."

* When used in a casual sentence: "He followed the commandments of his parents."

In short, capitalize "Commandments" when referring to the specific Ten Commandments or when using it as a formal title, but not in general use.
