These are the commandments
This phrase refers to the specific set of laws and instructions given by God. In the context of Leviticus, these commandments encompass various aspects of religious, moral, and social life for the Israelites. The term "commandments" underscores the authoritative nature of these instructions, indicating they are not mere suggestions but divine mandates.

that the LORD gave to Moses
The LORD, or Yahweh, is the covenant name of God, emphasizing His eternal and unchanging nature. Moses, as the mediator between God and the Israelites, received these commandments directly from God. This highlights Moses' unique role as a prophet and leader, chosen to convey God's will to His people. The direct communication between God and Moses signifies the importance and divine origin of these laws.

for the Israelites
The Israelites, descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, are the chosen people of God. These commandments were given specifically to them as part of the covenant relationship established at Mount Sinai. This covenant set the Israelites apart from other nations, establishing them as a holy people dedicated to God. The laws served to guide their conduct and worship, ensuring they remained distinct and faithful to their calling.

on Mount Sinai
Mount Sinai is the significant geographical location where God revealed Himself to Moses and the Israelites. It is traditionally identified with a mountain in the Sinai Peninsula, though its exact location remains uncertain. The giving of the law at Mount Sinai is a pivotal event in biblical history, marking the formal establishment of the covenant between God and His people. This event is foundational for understanding the relationship between God and Israel, as well as the broader narrative of redemption that unfolds throughout Scripture.

Persons / Places / Events

Teaching Points
Divine Authority
The commandments are given by the LORD, emphasizing His authority and sovereignty. As believers, we are called to recognize and submit to God's authority in our lives.

Covenant Relationship
The laws were given to the Israelites as part of their covenant relationship with God. Today, we are reminded of our covenant relationship with God through Christ, which calls us to live in obedience and faithfulness.

Holiness and Obedience
The commandments underscore the call to holiness and obedience. As Christians, we are to pursue holiness, understanding that our obedience is a response to God's grace.

Continuity of God's Word
The commandments given at Sinai are part of the larger account of God's redemptive plan. We see the continuity of God's Word from the Old Testament to the New Testament, culminating in Jesus Christ.

Community and Identity
The laws were given to shape the identity and community of God's people. In the church today, we are called to live as a distinct community that reflects God's character to the world.(34) These are the commandments.--That is, the laws laid down in Leviticus 27:1-34.

In Mount Sinai.--In the mountainous district of Sinai. (See Leviticus 26:46.)

Verse 34. - The final verse of the previous chapter is repeated after the further legislation on vows and on their commutation has been added, to show that it too makes part of the Sinaitic code.
