Deuteronomy 5:1-3
New Catholic Bible
Chapter 5
The Ten Commandments.[a] 1 Moses then summoned all of the Israelites and said to them, “Hear, O Israel, the statutes and the decrees that I proclaim in your hearing today. Learn them and carefully observe them. 2 The Lord, our God, made a covenant with us at Horeb. 3 The Lord did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with those of us who are still alive and present today.

- Deuteronomy 5:1 These covenant statutes, which we have already met in Ex 20:1-16, were recited by the Israelites during liturgical assemblies. They contain the word of God and show the people the way they must follow at all times; they are the basis of the morality of both the Old Testament and the gospel and represent fundamental norms of a human ethics. Comparable lists are found in 27:15-26; Ex 34:11-26; Lev 19:1-4, 11-18; but these are less general than the Decalogue.
