The number 10, where does it come up? What is the significance? Well spiritually, we have the 10 Commandments right? You probably should occasionally look at them. The 10th commandment in Christianity is "Thou shalt not covet". What is should not be coveted is up for some debate among scholars.
Islam has a 10th commandment? (sort of) : "Do not be arrogant in one's claims or beliefs: And pursue not that of which thou hast no knowledge; for every act of hearing, or of seeing or of (feeling in) the heart will be inquired into (on the Day of Reckoning)." Islam doesn't actually have any commandments per say, but this is the 10th precept. (reference)
There were 10 plagues of Eqypt and the tenth plague, was the death of the first-born sons of the families of Egypt. The Torah describes the Angel of Death as actually passing through Egypt to kill all firstborn. There are said to be Ten Lost Tribes of Israel. (reference)
There are Ten Sephirot in the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. Sephirot are the 10 attributes that God created through which he can manifest not only in the physical but the metaphysical universe. The 10th Sephirot is Malkuth which some how related to the 10 the suit in each of the suits of the Tarot. Malkuth ("kingdom"; מלכות), or Shekhinah is the tenth of the sephirot in the Kabbalistic Tree of Life.
Capricorn is the 10th astrological sign in the western Zodiac. ( reference )
There's always a 'Top 10' of everything interesting.
These are those things in common relevancy to this topic. There are many more, and more will be added to this post.

Yeah, I am aware of that reduced 10=1. No need to be rude man. If you aren't interested no reason to bash it. You'll sell zero books because nobody likes you.
