The Nth Commandment is a 1923 silent drama film directed by Frank Borzage and starring Colleen Moore. It is based on a story, The Nth Commandment, by Fannie Hurst, a well-known novelist of the day.[1][2]

The film's title jests somewhat Cecil B. DeMille's upcoming epic The Ten Commandments (1923) which was released later that same year.

An incomplete copy of the film is in the Library of Congress collection.[3][4]
