Q

Why did God give the Israelites a set of laws

A

God gave a set of Laws to live by because:

God wanted them to live in a way that was different from the “sinful” behaviour of other neighbouring cultures.

God wanted the Israelites to live in a way that showed they were trusting Him and looking after each other.

There are 613 commandments in the Old Testament Law (Jewish Torah) covering all sorts of issues related to religious practice, social justice and lifestyle.
