The Law 

 

  

 6. Their fathers did not have the Decalogue as worded on the tables.

  This Moses directly states. (Deut. 4:12, 13) says God spoke to the children of Israel from heaven, and declared to them "his covenant," "even ten commandments."( Chapter 5:2, 3) says: "The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb. The Lord made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us." Then he repeats the Ten Commandments as that very covenant (vss. 4-22). That their fathers had the law as worded and arranged at Sinai is directly denied by Moses.
