Deuteronomy
Deuteronomy 4:10, 5:22, 9:10, 10:4, 18:16, 23:1-3, 8, 31:12, 28, 30
Deuteronomy 4:10 how on the day that you stood before Y’H'Vah your God at Horeb (on on that day YOU WERE GATHERED), the LORD said to me, GATHER the people to me, that I may let them hear my words, so that they may learn to fear me all the days that they live on the earth, and that they may teach their children so.’
(tay haymera ek’klaysias (only in LXX), haq-hel Li- ath ha Ahm / ek’klay-siason pros me ton laon)
* Deuteronomy 5:22 The LORD said these things TO A WHOLE MULTITUDE of you at the mountain from the middle of the fire, the cloud, and the darkness with a loud voice, and that was all he said. Then he inscribed the words on two stone tablets and gave them to me.
(ell khall q’Hal khem/ pros pasan sunago-ogayn umo-own )
Note: Qahall’s unspiritual nature, see Genesis 49:6
** Deuteronomy 9:10 And the LORD gave me the two tablets of stone written with the finger of God, and on them were all the words that the LORD had spoken with you on the mountain out of the midst of the fire on that day YOU WERE GATHERED.
(“b’yom ha qa-hal”/ “haymera ek’klaysias” )
Note: The first use of ecclesia to define qahall as a phrase. See Deuteronomy 23:1.
Deuteronomy 10:4 The LORD then wrote on the tablets the same words, the ten commandments, which he had spoken to you at the mountain from the middle of the fire on that day YOU WERE GATHERED, and he gave them to me.
(b’yom ha qa-hal / NOTHING)
Deuteronomy 18:16 just as you desired of the LORD your God at Horeb on that day YOU WERE GATHERED, when you said, ‘Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God or see this great fire any more, lest I die.’
(“b’yom ha qa-hal”/ “tay haymera ek’klaysias”)

Deuteronomy 31:12 GATHER the people – men, women, and children, as well as the resident foreigners in your villages – so they may hear and thus learn about and fear Y’H'Vah your God and carefully obey all the words of this law.
(ha q’hel ath ha’am / ek’klaysiasas ton laon)
Deuteronomy 31:28 GATHER to me all your tribal elders and officials so I can speak to them directly about these things and call the heavens and the earth to witness against them.
(haq hee-loo e-Lye / ek’klaysiasate pros me)
** Deuteronomy 31:30 Then Moses recited the words of this song from start to finish in the hearing OF THE whole MULTITUDE of IsraEl.
(call q’hal ish-ra-el / pasays ek’klaysias isra-El)
Note: The first time ecclesia is used to define qahall as “the multitude of israEl”. From this point on qahall will continually be defined by ecclesia.
