These are not merely legalistic rules but are seen as a reflection of God's character and His covenant with His people. In the ancient Near Eastern context, testimonies were often inscribed on tablets or stones, serving as a permanent record of a king's decrees. Similarly, God's testimonies are eternal and unchanging, serving as a guide for righteous living. They are a testament to His will and purpose for humanity, calling believers to align their lives with His divine order.
