The Law of God.

In the third month after leaving Egypt, the children of Israel arrived at the foot of Mount Sinai. God had told Moses that after delivering the Israelite’s, He would bring him back to the place of his first encounter with Him at the burning bush, and that he would serve Him on Mount Sinai.

It is seen here that the arrival of the children of Israel to mount Sinai inaugurated the last stage of the process of forging a national identity and spiritual destiny.

For as much as God was forging a national identity of The descendants of Abraham, haven’t promised He would make him a great nation, God had also turned to the gentiles to take a Bride for his name as the spiritual seed of Abraham they rejected him when he became manifested in flesh.

( Exodus 12:3) And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.

In (Exodus 19:5-6) God said to Moses, if the people would agree to the terms, they would become a special treasure to God above all people. Apostle Peter reiterated in (1 Peter 2:9) But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Again The ten commandments literally, The ten rules in Hebrews; were meant to be the basis of their life under God going forward

(Exodus 20: 2-17) God gave the 10 commandments to Moses. This is the Law in a codified form.

Honor your father and mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the LORD your God is giving you

You shall not murder

You shall not commit adultery

You shall not steal

You shall not bear false witness against their neighbor

You shall not covet your neighbor house; you shall not covet your neighbor wife nor his male servant, nor his female servant nor his ox nor his donkey nor anything that is your neighbors.

These were all pre- figurative of the Lord Jesus Christ who was to be the last Adam to deal with the sin nature.

In (Romans 5:12-17) Apostle Paul indicated; Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many. And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification. For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)

Apostle John also mentioned sin is the transgression of the Law. (1 John 3:4) Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.

In effect Adam and Eve broke most of the Ten commandments in the first sin against God’s command not to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil
