![]() And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them. And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into the mount of God. And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again unto you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: if any man have any matters to do, let him come unto them. And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount. And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud. And the sight of the glory of the LORD was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the children of Israel. And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and gat him up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.

![]() God's purpose for giving us the Ten Commandments is that, if we obey them,we can live happier, more peaceful and fruitful lives. And, so that we can have the proper relationship with Him as well as with others. By these commandments we are able to determine right from wrong and to know that we have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. But, the good news is that Jesus came to forgive us of sin and restore us to fellowship with God.
