'Instructions' in the Bible

These are the instructions, decrees, and ordinances that Moses declared to the Israelis when they came out of Egypt.

And you shall hear, Israel, and be careful to observe [these instructions], so that {it may go well for you} and that you may multiply greatly, [just] as Yahweh, the God of your ancestors, {promised} you, [in] a land with milk and honey.

"When your son asks you in the future, "What is the meaning of the instructions, decrees, and ordinances that the LORD our God commanded you?'

Therefore you shall love Yahweh your God, and keep his instructions, and his statutes, and his ordinances, and his commandments, always.

carry out the verdict that was declared to you at the place that the LORD will choose. Carefully observe all of their instructions to you

May my instructions descend like rain and may my words flow like dew, as light rain upon the grass, and as showers upon new plants.

because they're not just empty words for you they are your very life. Through these instructions you will live long in the land that you are about to cross over the Jordan River to possess."
