#### Important figures of speech in this chapter ####
##### Rhetorical Questions #####
Moses uses several rhetorical questions in this chapter. The purpose of these questions is to convince people of their sin. Likewise, the people's rhetorical question showed their ignorance. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]] and [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/sin]])
#### Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter ####
