Remember (consider) the teaching (Hebr. Torah) of my servant Moses [the five books of Moses with instructions] that I commanded him at Horeb (Hebr. Chorev) [Mount Sinai], the statutes (literally "things engraved" – Hebr. chuqim) and the ordinances (binding legal decisions – Hebr. mishpatim) for all Israel. [The word Chorev shares its root with the word for dry/desolate (Hebr. charev), which describes the area around Mount Sinai. The word also shares its root with the word cherev, which means sword. This takes on a deeper meaning when we know that God's word is described as a sword (Heb. 4:12) and the covenant that was made here, see 1 Kings 8:9.]
