Ten Commandments Get a Second Chance
Saturday, September 10, 2016 by Sally Jo

Investigating Writing and the Bible

As a PI and a writer, the idea of investigating Bible commands to write intrigued me.

Here is scripture #3-

The Ten Commandments Get a Second Chance:

ten commandments (2)

(Angered after seeing the golden calf idol the Israelites made, Moses broke the first tablets inscribed with the Ten Commandments. Moses is commanded to write them again.)

Exodus 34: 27-28- And the Lord said unto Moses, write thou these words: for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel. And he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
