God spoke various portions of the Torah to Moses in different places, beginning in Egypt (Exodus ch.12) and ending on the east bank of the Jordan (Numbers 33:50), with additional places in between during the Israelites' 40 years in the wilderness between Egypt and Canaan. Moses had written all the Torah between the time of the Exodus [1446BC Ussher] and his death 40 years later [1406BC Ussher]. This included when the Law was given to Moses by God on Mt Sinai.
Leviticus 26
46 These are the statutes and judgments and laws, which the LORD made between him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.
However, although The Bible it is called Mt Sinai, and also called 'Horeb', it is NOT the Mt Sinai of today in the Sinai Peninsula: it is actually 'Jebel el Lawz' in Saudi Arabia.

Exodus 20:15 is a good place to start, and actually, you could keep going from there practically to Moses' death at the end of Deuteronomy. The majority of the text consists of Moses receiving, and passing on what he hears to all the people.
Mount Sinai (Exodus 24:12-16)
God gave Moses the laws , called the ten commandments on Mount Sinai.

Moses was an Israelite himself, and led his people for 40 years from Egypt to the border of the Promised Land. Moses was also given the Law to pass on to the Israelites from God.
No. Jesus did not come to undo or abolish the law of Moses, but to fulfill it (Matthew 5:17).
torah is the law of God as given to Moses. The Torah is important to follow
Moses did not have a "stepfather-in-law" since his wife, Zipporah, never had a stepfather. Moses' father-in-law was Jethro.
The mitzvot (commands) given to the Jewish people through Moses by God, are found in the Torah. The halachot (details of the laws) and traditions of the Jewish people are found in the Talmud.
Moses father in law Jethro lived in Midian , he was a priest.
To Moses the Lord first gave the Higher Priesthood and revealed the fullness of the gospel. But Israel rebelled and manifest such gross unworthiness that their God took from them the power whereby they could have become a kingdom of priests and of kings and gave them instead a lesser law, a preparatory gospel. He gave them instead The Law of Moses. They were the divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation. They were the law of commandments contained in ordinances. When Christ came the law was done away with and the Higher Law was again restored. The Lord said "Behold, I say unto you the law if fulfilled that was given unto Moses".
The ark was built, not recieved. The instructions were given to Moses and the ark was constructed at Mt. Sinai (Exodus 25 - 36).
