“I am the Lord thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.”
'I am the LORD your God, which have brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage' -- the Decalogue begins with self-identification and historical grounding. The LORD identifies himself through his redemptive action (exodus). The law is rooted in salvation history, not abstract morality. Obedience is response to liberation.
