What are the 7 exact biblical quotes for when Moses climbed Mt. Sinai?
Moses' initial conversations with Yahweh on the mount...In Exodus, Chapter 19, the Lord calls to Moses while he is in the Desert of Sinai.(1) Exodus 19.3: "Then Moses went up to God, and the Lord called to him from the mountain [Sinai] and said, 'This is what you are to say to the house of Jacob and what you are to tell the people of Israel.'"After this, Moses went back down to the people to deliver the message. It is written the people agree to the covenant.(2) Exodus 19.8.C: "... So Moses brought their answer back to the Lord."Once Moses had returned Israel celebrated and the Lord set a time for them to hear Him. Moses brought Israel to the foot of the mountain and the Lord covered the mountain with fire and smoke.(3) Exodus 19.20: "The Lord descended to the top of Mount Sinai and called Moses to the top of the mountain. So Moses went up..."While there, Moses is asked to go back and bring Aaron up the mountain to meet with the Lord. In 19.25 we are told Moses returns to the people. This is the end of Chapter 19. Now the beginning of Chapter 20 is the first issuing of the 10 commandments by the Lord. This implies a return visit by Moses but has no direct quote.Moses' introduction to the covenant…Beginning in Chapter 24 Moses is asked to worship with a few other leaders near the holy place. He is instructed to come up again to the Lord alone. There he received the covenant for the first time.(4) Exodus 24.13: "Then Moses set out with Joshua his aide, and Moses went up into the mountain of God."In the mountain Moses is covered by a cloud and awaits the Lord for 7 days. When the Lord arrived it looked like fire consumed the mountain. Moses remained for 40 days and 40 nights in the Lord's presence. To the Israelites below it looked as though Moses was gone, which leads into their turning from Yahweh and building false idols. Moses' next visit is sparked by his coming to God on their behalf; an expedition intended to intercede for them.(5) Exodus 32.31-32: "So Moses went back to the Lord and said, 'Oh, what a great sin these people have committed! They have made themselves gods of gold. But now, please forgive their sin-but if not, then blot me out of the book you have written.'"Moses' final trips into the mountain…After breaking the tablets of the law, God tells Moses to come back up with two new tablets.(6) Exodus 34.4: "So Moses chiseled out two stone tablets like the first ones and went up Mount Sinai early in the morning, as the Lord had commanded him; and he carried the stone tablets in his hands."

Does the New Testament cancel the law of moses in the Old Testament?
Answer 1 Christians believe that the New Testament and the New Covenant replaces the Law of Moses and the Old Covenant.Answer 2It depends on the sect of Christianity and the way the different sects read the New Testament. Of course, since there are many divisions within the major sects, the groupings are provided to give a general idea.There is the perspective that the New Testament is an expansion, but not a replacement of the Old Testament. This is typically espoused by Catholics and Orthodox Christians. They see the Old Covenant as being a way that a certain group of people, the Israelites, were made holy. The New Covenant allows people outside of the Israelite tribes to be grafted into that holiness through accepting the New Covenant.There is also the perspective that the New Testament is a replacement for the Old Testament. Christian groups that espouse this perspective are mostly Protestants. The underlying premise was that God granted holiness to one group of people, the Israelites, who failed to keep his laws. Therefore, God was required to create a New Covenant with the whole world to better bring holiness into it. This law eclipses and replaces the Old Covenant because the Old Covenant was a failure.
