Afterward all the children of Israel came near, and he gave them all the commandments that Yahweh had spoken with him on Mount Sinai.
World English Bible
Questions where the Bible appears to say two different things, with the passages on each side set together.
Exodus, Leviticus, and Nehemiah consistently name Mount Sinai as the mountain of revelation (Exod 31:18, 34:4, 34:32, Lev 26:46, 27:34, Neh 9:13). Deuteronomy, 1 Kings, 2 Chronicles, and Malachi consistently name Mount Horeb (Deut 29:1, 1 Kgs 8:9, 2 Chr 5:10, Mal 4:4).
