well, you can find all sorts of numbers and all sorts of numbered commandments and instructions in scripture but here's TWO that Jesus said were so important that they fulfilled ALL the laws and precepts for achieving holiness---"you shall love the Lord, your God with all your heart....this is the first and greatest commandment and the second is liken to it---you shall love your neighbor as yourself on these two commandments hang all the law and prophets."(Matt. 22: 34-40).

There appear to be 42 precepts of ancient Egypt that preceded the 10 commandments. Perhaps someone is conflating?
Precepts of MAAT

I googled 42 + jesus =


42 Second Coming of Jesus

Let's take 42. Number 42 is the number associated with the Coming of Jesus: both His first coming and the two manifestations at His second advent (He came into the world the first time in the 42nd generation from Abraham). He is coming back for His saints before the 42-month reign of the beast, perhaps 42 months before the beast's reign begins. He will return to the earth at the end of the 42-month reign of the beast to put an end to the wicked reign. The marvelous way in which this number works is the wonder of all wonders. My children of God, the time is at hand!

"So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations." That is in Matthew 1:17. Here are 14 generations three times over. Three times 14 makes 42. Here is the number three for the Resurrection, and 14 for Salvation.

"And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call His name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins." See Matthew 1:21. Christ is also the "Resurrection, and the life:" That is in John 11:25. When Jesus comes for His saints, the dead in Christ will be raised and the salvation of their bodies will take place, "and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation." (Hebrews 9:28)

Yeah, I found same for maat. OK, I'd scratch the reference then. This came in play from an article that listed 51 precept of Krishna as compared to 42 precepts of Jesus.
It's internet. People say whatever they want to.
