除了十誡，摩西還得到為以色列全國百姓在生活的各個層面所設定的典章與禮儀。民法顯出上帝的執法公正、財產權益、關懷貧窮、懲治罪犯及人際關係的維持等等極為關注；禮儀之法討論的是有關會幕的種種（會幕是以色列人在流浪時期的「曠野教會」），諸如祭司、奉獻及每年的節期等等。在一連串有關順服的提醒之後，上帝呼召摩西再度上山，給予教導達四十天之久。

        在上帝眼中，沒有一個人在守律法是可以稱為義的！加拉太書二章十六節說得很清楚，如此說來，你對今天的經文以什麼態度來讀？
        找出舊約律法和新約律法重疊的部份，十誡中有九條誡命一再的重覆，宣講那些作為能在今天榮耀上帝。
        記住：愛可以實現律法（太22：37－40）如果你真的盡心、盡性、盡意愛上帝，並愛鄰舍如同愛自己，你就會發現自己正在遵行十誡──不是因為你必須，而是因為你願意這麼做。
        學習聖經的律法，必須先了解上帝的屬性，上帝關心你生活中每一天的細節，即使只是牲畜的死亡，或是牙齒的掉落等等瑣事（21：27、28），祂希望一切都有公義、公平──無論是交易買賣、罪犯的懲治或是保護無辜。你是否也關注這些呢？

        「律法」中包含了多少條法律？
        只要提到「十誡」，許多人想到的就是十條誡命。事實上，從出埃及記到申命記裡已經超過了六百條，多年後，律法又經過許多拉比詮釋，他們的註釋編纂成一本書（即土明），書中包含了六十三個主題，共五百一十八章。

若每個人都能遵守十誡是多麼奇妙啊！

        In addition to the Ten Commandments, Moses receives a body of civil and ceremonial laws designed to regulate all aspects of Israel's national life. The civil laws show God's concern for the administration of justice, property rights, caring for the poor, punishing criminals, and maintaining purity in interpersonal relationships. The ceremonial laws deal with the tabernacle and the priests, sacrifices, offerings, and annual feasts involved with it. After a stern reminder of the importance of obedience, God calls Moses back up the mountain for 40 more days of instruction.

        Passages such as Gatatians2:16 make it clear that no one is justified by keeping the law. What then should be your attitude toward today's Scripture reading? Recognize that portions of the Old Testament law are repeated in the New Testament. Nine of the Ten Commandments are specifically reiterated, declaring the kind of conduct that glorifies God today.
        Remember that love is the fulfillment of the law (Matthew 22:37-40). If you truly love the Lord with all your heart, soul, and mind, and love your neighbor as yourself, you will find yourself keeping the Ten Commandments—not because you have to, but because you want to.
        Learn what Biblical law has to teach you about the character of God. God is concerned about the daily details of your life, even things as mundane as the death of an animal or the loss of a tooth (Exodus 21:27-28). He desires justice in business transactions, punishment for the guilty, and protection for the innocent.

        How Many Laws Are in "the Law"?
        Mention the phrase "Old Testament law" and many people think of the Ten Commandments. Actually, there are more than 600 regulations contained in the law sections of Exodus through Deuteronomy. Over the years these laws were interpreted by many rabbis, whose comments were compiled into a book (the Talmud), which has 63 major headings and 518 chapters!

What a scarcity of news there would be if everybody obeyed the Ten Commandments.
