Why did God give Moses the authority to establish common laws?

According to the Bible, Moses became the Israelites' leader; he led them out of Egypt and God gave the commandments to Moses to give them to the Israelites.Answer:A great misunderstanding exists among moder professing Christians, who think that the Ten Commandments came into existence with Moses... which therefore makes them [in their minds and hearts] "Jewish laws."The Truth is... the Ten Commandments have always been since before creation... long before "Moses recorded them in his inspired writings" for you and I to read in these last days."This is he [Moses], that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the Mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the Lively Oracles [the Living Word of God] TO GIVE TO US..." (Acts 7:38).The fact of the matter is that "sin" [the transgession, breaking, of the Ten Commandments - I John 3:4] was introduced into man's existence in the Garden of Eden, centuries before Moses was born. And man's breaking of them has persisted ever since."If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? And if thou doest not well, SIN lieth at the door..." (Gen.4:7)."...the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their SIN is very grievous..." (Gen.18:20)."...what have I offended thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great SIN?..." (Gen.20:9).The Commandments that Moses received from "the finger of God" [Ex.31:18] were kept also by their forefather, Abraham, centuries before any of the Israelites existed."Because that Abraham obeyed My voice, and kept My charge, My Commandments, My Statutes, and My laws." (Gen.26:5)So... as the above passage in the book of Acts states... Moses received the Ten Commandments, for one thing, to introduce them to the children of Abraham, who, after 400 years in Egyptian slavery, knew nothing about them.And God gave them to Moses for "you and I to read," today in these last days... that we might also know them."Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the Commandments of God, and the Faith of Jesus." (Rev.14:12)"Blessed are they that do His Commandments, that they may have the right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates of the city [New Jerusalem]." (Rev.22:14)Without Moses' "inspired writings" and those of the other inspired writers of God's Word... the end time generations would have had to depend upon the clouded, verbal, "hearsay" teachings, customs, traditions and legends of the past.God gave them to Moses... for us to read and study and know His Truth.
