Deuteronomy 6:2

Context
6:2 and that you may so revere the Lord your God that you will keep all his statutes and commandments 1  that I am giving 2  you – you, your children, and your grandchildren – all your lives, to prolong your days.

Deuteronomy 6:13

Context
6:13 You must revere the Lord your God, serve him, and take oaths using only his name.

1 tn Here the terms are not the usual חֻקִּים (khuqqim) and מִשְׁפָּטִים (mishpatim; as in v. 1) but חֻקֹּת (khuqqot, “statutes”) and מִצְוֹת (mitsot, “commandments”). It is clear that these terms are used interchangeably and that their technical precision ought not be overly stressed.

2 tn Heb “commanding.” For stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy, “giving” has been used in the translation.
