Matthew is trying to link Jesus as the new Moses. And if you if you know Moses from Exodus, there's kind of the this key point where Moses goes up the mountain and he receives the 10 commandments. And so if you're a good Jewish person listening to Jesus teaching, you know it's gonna trigger certain ideas. Like, oh, I've heard this before somewhere. Somebody goes up mountaintop and then receives something very important.
