When Moses came down from the mountain with the original commandment, they contained the Higher Law for the people. Moses broke the tablets when he saw what evil the people were doing by worshiping the golden calf. God gave other commandments to replace the original ten, but they were of a lesser law. This law was called the Mosaic law named after Moses. This law is contained all through The Bible from that time one. No where in the bible is contained the Higher Law unless you refer to the teachings of Christ when He was alive. This law would have to be given to the people when the time was right that they were able to live it.
There really wasn't a "Mosaic Covenant". But through his faithful prophet Moses, God initiated the "Law Covenant" that was between him and the nation of Israel - the children of Jacob. (Some do refer to this as the Law of Moses)
The Israelites were finally allowed to leave Egypt from slavery and bondage in the year 1513 BCE. In that same year, Moses began the writings of the first five
books of the Bible.
Soon after the Israelites had they left Egypt (in the third month) and after they crossed the Red Sea, the Law covenant was given to Moses for all of Israel to read and obey.
Genesis 19:1 "In the third month after the Israelites went out of the land of Egypt, on the same day, they came to the wilderness of Siʹnai"
The first part was the ten commandments which were the core principles for the Law covenant.
The Covenant of Moses was between God and the Israelite nation, not just between God and Moses. According to traditional chronology, this covenant (Exodus ch.19 and 24) was made in the month of Sivan (late Spring), in 1312 BCE.See also:
Covenants are contracts between God and mankind. They are consistent and ever-enlarging beginning from the Noahic Covenant, the Abrahamic Covenant, the Mosaic Covenant (aka Sinai Covenant), the Davidic Coventant, and the capstone or culminating New Covenant. Though men break covenants, God keeps His promises.
God established a covenant with the Israelites, known as the Mosaic Covenant, which included the Ten Commandments and other laws. This covenant served as a set of guidelines for the Israelites to follow in order to maintain their relationship with God and be distinct among the nations as his chosen people.
No. It was part of the covenant of Abraham.Jewish answer:Yes it was, since God reiterated it to Moses (Leviticus ch.12).
The three major Jewish covenants are Noah's Covenant, Abraham's Covenant, the Mosaic Covenant (Moses' Covenant.)

No I don't think so. God's covenant was with the nation of Israel. Amos' message to the kingdoms of Israel and Judah was they were not keeping their part of God's covenant with them.
The covenant was with God.
I believe there were at least 5 covenants God made with Israel. The Abrahamic covenant (Gen.12), the Mosaic Law Code (Ex. 20, Gal. 3), the Palestinian Covenant (Deut. 30), the Davidic Covenant ( (2 Samuel 7), and the New Covenant.
An agreement with God is usually called a covenant.
He made a covenant with god.
The first covenant God made with the Israelites, known as the Mosaic Covenant, was not fully obeyed because of the people's disobedience and tendency to worship other gods. Despite God's promises and blessings, the Israelites often strayed from his commandments and turned to idolatry, leading to consequences outlined in the covenant.
