Exodus 21-24

Chapter 21-23 are filled with the words of the covenant that God gave to Israel. After God had spoken them to Moses, Moses repeated them back to the people. God surely gave his prophet perfect recall when he spoke the words. Then Moses wrote down the same words he had spoken to the people. This is the first mention of written scripture. This example of writting what God had spoken laid the foundation for God's word that we still cherish today.
