The word "decalogue" is not actually found in the Bible. It is a theological term applied to the 10 Commandments. "Dec" for 10, and "logue" for words or commans.
They are considered to be part of the "Mosaic Covenant" (so named because Moses was the agent through whom they were enacted).

Dear Friend
Decalougue refers to the 10 commandments written on the tablets given to Moses by God. this is predominantly a catholic term. Covenant is the hebraic term for a promise or agreement
God Bless

The only thing I can think of that has the significance of 10 and is part of the covenant with Israel, are the Ten Commandments.

welll since you havent granted the ten pts, I will say that you are referring to the covenant with Abraham.
Otherwise I would say the 10 Commandmetns.

Well I'm going to guess... based on the "deca" part of it that this is referring to the Mosaic Covenanant, of which the ten commandments are a part.
