The Ten Commandments and the Mosaic Covenant |
• The terms of the Mosaic Covenant were summarized in the Ten
Commandments that were etched on the tablets of stone for Moses by God on Mount
Sinai:
–
Deuteronomy 4:13 - He [the
Lord] declared to you His
covenant, the Ten Commandments, which He commanded you
to follow and then wrote them on two stone tablets.
•
The Ten Commandments were given specifically to the
Nation of Israel.
–
Exodus 34:27-28 - Then the
LORD said to Moses, "Write down these words, for in accordance with these
words I have made a covenant
with you and with Israel." . . .
And He [the Lord] wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant-- the Ten Commandments.
