Understanding the nature of the divine commandments

Explain here how the commandments of the bible are not comparable to modern laws and regulations, how the one let's you live while the other is nothing but an unfair burden, designed to suffer you.

Proverbs 3:1 My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:

Proverbs 3:2 For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.
