heqet
הקת
Appearing in the book of Genesis before the foundation of the Mosaic law, it is unlikely that this word means “statutes” as is commonly interpreted.
Its use in Job 38 suggests a more accurate interpretation might be “stories” or “lore”.
Nevertheless it is often used in conjunction with metzot and/or toreh in reference to the Mosaic law.
