Which verse states that God spoke the words He recorded?

• A. Exodus 20:1
• B. Psalm 119:105
• C. Genesis 1:1
• D. Deuteronomy 5:1

Answer: (A)

Exodus 20:1 is the verse that directly states God spoke the words. It opens with “And God spoke all these words, saying…,” signaling that the commandments themselves are divine revelation spoken by God and later recorded as the authoritative instruction for Israel. This fits the idea of God’s words being spoken and then written or inscribed for the people to receive.

The other verses don’t carry that precise statement. Psalm 119:105 speaks about God’s word guiding and lighting the path, not about God speaking specific recorded words in a giving moment. Genesis 1:1 describes creation by God, not revelations given to Israel. Deuteronomy 5:1 shows Moses recounting the commands to the people, rather than God directly speaking those words in that moment.
