- Deut 9:13-20 : 13 Furthermore the LORD{H3068} spake{H559}{(H8799)} unto me, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, I have seen{H7200}{(H8804)} this people{H5971}, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked{H6203}{H7186} people{H5971}: 14 Let me alone{H7503}{(H8685)}, that I may destroy{H8045}{(H8686)} them, and blot out{H4229}{(H8799)} their name{H8034} from under heaven{H8064}: and I will make{H6213}{(H8799)} of{H854} thee a nation{H1471} mightier{H6099} and greater{H7227} than they. 15 So I turned{H6437}{(H8799)} and came down{H3381}{(H8799)} from the mount{H2022}, and the mount{H2022} burned{H1197}{(H8802)} with fire{H784}: and the two{H8147} tables{H3871} of the covenant{H1285} were in my two{H8147} hands{H3027}. 16 And I looked{H7200}{(H8799)}, and, behold, ye had sinned{H2398}{(H8804)} against the LORD{H3068} your God{H430}, and had made{H6213}{(H8804)} you a molten{H4541} calf{H5695}: ye had turned aside{H5493}{(H8804)} quickly{H4118} out of the way{H1870} which the LORD{H3068} had commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} you. 17 And I took{H8610}{(H8799)} the two{H8147} tables{H3871}, and cast{H7993}{(H8686)} them out of{H5921} my two{H8147} hands{H3027}, and brake{H7665}{(H8762)} them before your eyes{H5869}. 18 And I fell down{H5307}{(H8691)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}, as at the first{H7223}, forty{H705} days{H3117} and forty{H705} nights{H3915}: I did neither eat{H398}{(H8804)} bread{H3899}, nor drink{H8354}{(H8804)} water{H4325}, because of all your sins{H2403} which ye sinned{H2398}{(H8804)}, in doing{H6213}{(H8800)} wickedly{H7451} in the sight{H5869} of the LORD{H3068}, to provoke him to anger{H3707}{(H8687)}. 19 For I was afraid{H3025}{(H8804)} of{H6440} the anger{H639} and hot displeasure{H2534}, wherewith the LORD{H3068} was wroth{H7107}{(H8804)} against you to destroy{H8045}{(H8687)} you. But the LORD{H3068} hearkened{H8085}{(H8799)} unto me at that time{H6471} also. 20 And the LORD{H3068} was very{H3966} angry{H599}{(H8694)} with Aaron{H175} to have destroyed{H8045}{(H8687)} him: and I prayed{H6419}{(H8691)} for Aaron{H175} also the same time{H6256}.
- Deut 9:25-29 : 25 Thus I fell down{H5307}{(H8691)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068} forty{H705} days{H3117} and forty{H705} nights{H3915}, as I fell down{H5307}{(H8694)} at the first; because the LORD{H3068} had said{H559}{(H8804)} he would destroy{H8045}{(H8687)} you. 26 I prayed{H6419}{(H8691)} therefore unto the LORD{H3068}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, O Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}, destroy{H7843}{(H8686)} not thy people{H5971} and thine inheritance{H5159}, which thou hast redeemed{H6299}{(H8804)} through thy greatness{H1433}, which thou hast brought forth{H3318}{(H8689)} out of Egypt{H4714} with a mighty{H2389} hand{H3027}. 27 Remember{H2142}{(H8798)} thy servants{H5650}, Abraham{H85}, Isaac{H3327}, and Jacob{H3290}; look{H6437}{(H8799)} not unto the stubbornness{H7190} of this people{H5971}, nor to their wickedness{H7562}, nor to their sin{H2403}: 28 Lest the land{H776} whence thou broughtest us out{H3318}{(H8689)} say{H559}{(H8799)}, Because the LORD{H3068} was not able{H3201}{(H8800)} to bring{H935}{(H8687)} them into the land{H776} which he promised{H1696}{(H8765)} them, and because he hated{H8135} them, he hath brought them out{H3318}{(H8689)} to slay{H4191}{(H8687)} them in the wilderness{H4057}. 29 Yet they are thy people{H5971} and thine inheritance{H5159}, which thou broughtest out{H3318}{(H8689)} by thy mighty{H1419} power{H3581} and by thy stretched out{H5186}{(H8803)} arm{H2220}.
- Deut 18:15-19 : 15 The LORD{H3068} thy God{H430} will raise up{H6965}{(H8686)} unto thee a Prophet{H5030} from the midst{H7130} of thee, of thy brethren{H251}, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken{H8085}{(H8799)}; 16 According to all that thou desiredst{H7592}{(H8804)} of the LORD{H3068} thy God{H430} in Horeb{H2722} in the day{H3117} of the assembly{H6951}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Let me not hear{H8085}{(H8800)} again{H3254}{(H8686)} the voice{H6963} of the LORD{H3068} my God{H430}, neither let me see{H7200}{(H8799)} this great{H1419} fire{H784} any more, that I die{H4191}{(H8799)} not. 17 And the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto me, They have well{H3190}{(H8689)} spoken that which they have spoken{H1696}{(H8765)}. 18 I will raise them up{H6965}{(H8686)} a Prophet{H5030} from among{H7130} their brethren{H251}, like unto thee, and will put{H5414}{(H8804)} my words{H1697} in his mouth{H6310}; and he shall speak{H1696}{(H8765)} unto them all that I shall command{H6680}{(H8762)} him. 19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever{H376} will not hearken{H8085}{(H8799)} unto my words{H1697} which he shall speak{H1696}{(H8762)} in my name{H8034}, I will require{H1875}{(H8799)} it of him.
- Deut 33:2 : 2 And he said{H559}{(H8799)}, The LORD{H3068} came{H935}{(H8804)} from Sinai{H5514}, and rose up{H2224}{(H8804)} from Seir{H8165} unto them; he shined forth{H3313}{(H8689)} from mount{H2022} Paran{H6290}, and he came{H857}{(H8804)} with ten thousands{H7233} of saints{H6944}: from his right hand{H3225} went a fiery{H799}{(H8676)}{H784} law{H1881} for them.
- Ps 106:23 : 23 Therefore he said{H559}{(H8799)} that he would destroy{H8045}{(H8687)} them, had not{H3884} Moses{H4872} his chosen{H972} stood{H5975}{(H8804)} before{H6440} him in the breach{H6556}, to turn away{H7725}{(H8687)} his wrath{H2534}, lest he should destroy{H7843}{(H8687)} them.
- Ps 147:19-20 : 19 He sheweth{H5046}{(H8688)} his word{H1697}{(H8675)}{H1697} unto Jacob{H3290}, his statutes{H2706} and his judgments{H4941} unto Israel{H3478}. 20 He hath not dealt{H6213}{(H8804)} so with any nation{H1471}: and as for his judgments{H4941}, they have not known{H3045}{(H8804)} them. Praise{H1984}{(H8761)} ye the LORD{H3050}.
- Luke 16:31 : 31 And{G1161} he said{G2036}{(G5627)} unto him{G846}, If{G1487} they hear{G191}{(G5719)} not{G3756} Moses{G3475} and{G2532} the prophets{G4396}, neither{G3761} will they be persuaded{G3982}{(G5701)}, though{G1437} one{G5100} rose{G450}{(G5632)} from{G1537} the dead{G3498}.
- John 1:17 : 17 For{G3754} the law{G3551} was given{G1325}{(G5681)} by{G1223} Moses{G3475}, but grace{G5485} and{G2532} truth{G225} came{G1096}{(G5633)} by{G1223} Jesus{G2424} Christ{G5547}.

- Rom 3:19-20 : 19 Now{G1161} we know{G1492}{(G5758)} that{G3754} what things soever{G3745} the law{G3551} saith{G3004}{(G5719)}, it saith{G2980}{(G5719)} to them who are under{G1722} the law{G3551}: that{G2443} every{G3956} mouth{G4750} may be stopped{G5420}{(G5652)}, and{G2532} all{G3956} the world{G2889} may become{G1096}{(G5638)} guilty{G5267} before God{G2316}. 20 Therefore{G1360} by{G1537} the deeds{G2041} of the law{G3551} there shall{G1344} no{G3956}{G3756} flesh{G4561} be justified{G1344}{(G5701)} in his{G846} sight{G1799}: for{G1063} by{G1223} the law{G3551} is the knowledge{G1922} of sin{G266}.

And he wrote{H3789}{(H8799)} upon the tables{H3871} the words{H1697} of the covenant{H1285}, the ten{H6235} commandments{H1697}. 29 And it came to pass, when Moses{H4872} came down{H3381}{(H8800)} from mount{H2022} Sinai{H5514} with the two{H8147} tables{H3871} of testimony{H5715} in Moses{H4872}' hand{H3027}, when he came down{H3381}{(H8800)} from the mount{H2022}, that Moses{H4872} wist{H3045}{(H8804)} not that the skin{H5785} of his face{H6440} shone{H7160}{(H8804)} while he talked{H1696}{(H8763)} with him. 30 And when Aaron{H175} and all the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} Moses{H4872}, behold, the skin{H5785} of his face{H6440} shone{H7160}{(H8804)}; and they were afraid{H3372}{(H8799)} to come nigh{H5066}{(H8800)} him. 31 And Moses{H4872} called{H7121}{(H8799)} unto them; and Aaron{H175} and all the rulers{H5387} of the congregation{H5712} returned{H7725}{(H8799)} unto him: and Moses{H4872} talked{H1696}{(H8762)} with them. 32 And afterward{H310} all the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} came nigh{H5066}{(H8738)}: and he gave them in commandment{H6680}{(H8762)} all that the LORD{H3068} had spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} with him in mount{H2022} Sinai{H5514}. 33 And till Moses{H4872} had done{H3615}{(H8762)} speaking{H1696}{(H8763)} with them, he put{H5414}{(H8799)} a vail{H4533} on his face{H6440}. 34 But when Moses{H4872} went in{H935}{(H8800)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068} to speak{H1696}{(H8763)} with him, he took{H5493} the vail{H4533} off{H5493}{(H8686)}, until he came out{H3318}{(H8800)}. And he came out{H3318}{(H8804)}, and spake{H1696}{(H8765)} unto the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} that which he was commanded{H6680}{(H8792)}. 35 And the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} saw{H7200}{(H8804)} the face{H6440} of Moses{H4872}, that the skin{H5785} of Moses{H4872}' face{H6440} shone{H7160}{(H8804)}: and Moses{H4872} put{H7725} the vail{H4533} upon his face{H6440} again{H7725}{(H8689)}, until he went{H935}{(H8800)} in to speak{H1696}{(H8763)} with him.
