NET Notes: Deu 6:2

¹ tn Here the terms are not the usual חֻקִּים (khuqqim) and מִשְׁפָּטִים (mishpatim; as in v. 1) but חֻקֹּת (khuqqot, “statutes”) and מִצְוֹת (mitsot, “commandments”). It is clear that these terms are used interchangeably and that their technical precision ought not be overly stressed.

² tn Heb “commanding.” For stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy, “giving” has been used in the translation.
