Oh my! Did you read the scriptures you quoted?

10 Then the Lord said: “I am making a covenant with you. Before all your people I will do wonders never before done in any nation in all the world. The people you live among will see how awesome is the work that I, the Lord, will do for you. Obey what I command you today. I will drive out before you the Amorites, Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites. Be careful not to make a treaty with those who live in the land where you are going, or they will be a snare among you. Break down their altars, smash their sacred stones and cut down their Asherah poles. Do not worship any other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.

1.“Be careful not to make a treaty with those who live in the land; for when they prostitute themselves to their gods and sacrifice to them, they will invite you and you will eat their sacrifices. And when you choose some of their daughters as wives for your sons and those daughters prostitute themselves to their gods, they will lead your sons to do the same.

2. “Do not make any idols.

3. Celebrate the Festival of Unleavened Bread. For seven days eat bread made without yeast, as I commanded you. Do this at the appointed time in the month of Aviv, for in that month you came out of Egypt.

4. “The first offspring of every womb belongs to me, including all the firstborn males of your livestock, whether from herd or flock. Redeem the firstborn donkey with a lamb, but if you do not redeem it, break its neck. Redeem all your firstborn sons. “No one is to appear before me empty-handed.

5. “Six days you shall labor, but on the seventh day you shall rest; even during the plowing season and harvest you must rest.

6. “Celebrate the Festival of Weeks with the first fruits of the wheat harvest, and the Festival of Ingathering at the turn of the year.

7. Three times a year all your men are to appear before the Sovereign Lord, the God of Israel. 24 I will drive out nations before you and enlarge your territory, and no one will covet your land when you go up three times each year to appear before the Lord your God.

8. “Do not offer the blood of a sacrifice to me along with anything containing yeast, and do not let any of the sacrifice from the Passover Festival remain until morning.

9. “Bring the best of the first fruits of your soil to the house of the Lord your God.

10. “Do not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.”

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Write down these words, for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.” Moses was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights without eating bread or drinking water. And he wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant—the Ten Commandments. Exodus 34:10-28

These are the Ten Commandment defined by God Himself. The Ten items in Chapter 20 are basic moral summaries of the 613 Mosaic Laws.
look I do not appreciate your sarcasm in what you wrote

You are toying with me and I won't bite so good luck to you and your sarcastic and false remarks, now do not bother a reply I am ignoring you no reason to continue. I have no time to waste with you.

Mat 7:6 Do not give dogs what is holy; do not throw your pearls before swine. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces.

Scriptures are not sarcasm.
If you would just read them you would understand them.

Exodus 24
7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the ears of the people. And they said, All that the LORD has said we will do, and be obedient. 8 And Moses took the blood and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD has made with you concerning all these words.

Notice the covenant was ratified with blood, and the people's obedience to all God's Law, including the 10 Commandments, formed the basis of the covenant.

Te ten commandments inside the ark of the testimony are a testimony against you (as they always were) because you break the covenant. You have broken it and you will break it because you cannot perfectly fulfill them yourself.
An important mistake In what you wrote, is the rest of the law of Moses and not the Ten Commandments that were against the people, the Ten Commandments are GOD's Moral eternal unalterable LAW, There were put INSIDE the ARK OF THE COVENANT, the rest of the law if Moses was put OUTside the ark of the covenant, these were given for the transgression of Israel the Ten Commandments. I an provide the verses if you need.
Or why do you think there was a mercy seat covering it, which required the blood of atonement to be sprinkled on it by an earthly high priest once a year?

Where is the blood of your covenant? The blood of your atonement?

THE LAW CHANGED WHEN CHRIST HAD DIED FOR SINS
Where does it say the law changed? or rather how did it change?

I will continue later to answer the rest of your comments,thank you.

It did change.
It used to be that one would offer certain animals as a blood sacrifice for one's sins.

But after Christ died on the Cross?

Are you still mandated to offer an animal sacrifice for your sins?

The advent of Christ did not change the Laws. Christ even said that nothing changed. They are still in effect for those under the Old Covenant.....the Jews.

You have failed - 100% - to understand the atonement of the Cross.

Your thinking is why Hebrews 6:4-6 was written.

It was about Jewish believers who went back to the Temple to offer animal sacrifices.
The Word says that such religious thinking Jewish believers are impossible to repent.. and that they are CRUCIFYING the Lord afresh!

I was born and grew up Jewish.
To me it is the absolute stupidest thing a Jewish believer could do.
It insults and nullifies the efficacy of the Cross! Hebrews 6:4-6 says so!



It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift,
who have shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the
powers of the coming age and who have fallen away, to be brought back to repentance.
To their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace.

Hebrews 6:4-6​

Take a flying leap!

But now we are getting somewhere.....written to Jewish-Christians.....good possibility.
Applies to anyone that abandons Christianity? Yes.
But there are other uniqueness-es about Hebrews.
