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 And yet for all that when they were in the land of their enemies, I did not cast them off altogether. Neither did I so despise them that they should be quite consumed: and I should make void my covenant with them. For I am the Lord their God.
45 And I will remember my former covenant, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, in the sight of the Gentiles, to be their God. I am the Lord.
46 (26-45) These are the judgments, and precepts, and laws, which the Lord gave between him and the children of Israel, in mount Sinai, by the hand of Moses.
