Leviticus 27:34

LEVITICUS—NOTE ON Leviticus 27:34 The phrase on Mount Sinai appeared in Leviticus 25:1 and Leviticus 26:46, giving the impression that just chs. Leviticus 25:1 were spoken on Mount Sinai. But the range of meaning of commandments probably includes “rules and statutes” (compare Leviticus 26:14), which suggests that this verse refers to the entire content of Leviticus 1:1.
