Leviticus 26:46 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 26:46

These [are] the statutes, and judgments, and laws
Which refer not only to those in this chapter, but in all the preceding chapters in this book, and respect them all, whether ceremonial, moral, or judicial, which may be signified by these three words:

which the Lord made between him and the children of Israel;
the Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan are,

``between his Word and the children of Israel:''

in Mount Sinai;
or near it, in the wilderness of it, while the children of Israel lay encamped about it:

by the hand of Moses;
they were first delivered to him, and by means of him to the people.

Leviticus 26:46 In-Context

44 But in spite of their behavior, while they are among their enemies I won't reject or abhor or destroy them completely. I won't break my covenant with them: I am God, their God.
45 For their sake I will remember the covenant with their ancestors whom I, with all the nations watching, brought out of Egypt in order to be their God. I am God."
46 These are the decrees, laws, and instructions that God established between himself and the People of Israel through Moses at Mount Sinai.
