  1. Stipulations of the Covenant (chapters 4 – 26) • Moral Law (4:44 – 11:32) • Ceremonial Law (12:1 – 16:17) • Civil Law (16:18 – 26:19)

  2. Introduction to the LAW This is the law that Moses set before the people of Israel. These are the testimonies, the statues, and the rules, which Moses spoke to the people of Israel when they came out of Egypt… (Deuteronomy 4:44 – 45)

  3. Moses the Mediator (5:5) • Moses served as the mediator between God and His people at Sinai • He carried messages back and forth during the preparation for the covenant (Ex. 19) and for the ratification (Ex. 24). • We see in Moses a preview of our Lord Jesus Christ, who mediates between God and us • See 1 Timothy 2:5

  4. 10 Commandments as a Covenant • God introduces Himself • Standard part of suzerain-vassal agreement of the ancient Near East • In these pacts, the ruler begins the agreement with a preamble (“I am the lord your God” • Followed by a historic prologue (“who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery”. • Then we will find the stipulations

  5. 10 Commandment RECAP • No other God’s (5:7) • No Idols (5:8-10) • No misusing God’s name (5:11) • Observing the Sabbath day (5:12 – 15) • Honoring Father and Mother (5:16)

  6. 10 Commandment RECAP • You shall not murder (5:17) • You shall not commit adultery (5:18) • You shall not steal (5:19) • You shall not bear false witness (5:20) • You shall not covet you anything (5:21)

  7. As soon as you heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, you came near to me…Behold, the LORD our God has shown us his glory and greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire. This day we have seen God speak with man, and man still live. (5:22-24)

  8. Great Shema • Named after the first Hebrew word in the Verse “Hear” • It was an early creed of Israel’s faith in God. • Observant Jews still say the Shema twice during morning and evening prayers. • This will be huge marker declaring the singleness of Yahweh compared to the pluralistic world of Baal.

  9. What does it mean to have god? Or what is God? Answer: A god means that from which we are to expect all good and in which we are to take refuge in distress. So, to have a God is nothing other than trusting and believing Him with the heart. I have often said that the confidence and faith of the heart alone make both God and an idol. If your faith and trust is right, then your god is also true. On the other hand, if your trust is false and wrong, then you do not have the true God. For these two belong together, faith and God. Now I say that whatever you set your heart on and put your trust in is truly your God. (Luther’s Large Catechism 1.1-3)

  10. Bind as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates. (6:8-9)

  11. Do not put the LORD your God to the test. Jesus takes the word from Deuteronomy 6:16 Israel questioned God Satan questioned Jesus
