Thou camest down also upon Mount Sinai,.... By some visible tokens of his presence, as a cloud, fire, smoke, c. which must be understood consistent with his omniscience, see Exodus 19:18,
and spakest with them from heaven the decalogue or ten commandments,
and gavest them right judgments and true laws, good statutes and commandments; both judicial and ceremonial, which were of excellent use to them in their civil and ecclesiastical polity; these were not spoken to Israel, but given to Moses on the mount, to be delivered to them.
