Week 59, Day : The Tablets Remade
Today’s Reading: Deut 10:1-22
Some thoughts from today’s reading…
God commands Moses to remake the two stone tablets. He brought these back up on the mountain and God wrote on them like the former tablets. Moses is told to put these into the ark of the covenant. This remaking of the tablets indicates God’s forgiveness of Israel for making the calf and thus a renewal of the covenant just made.
Moses asks them now, what does the Lord require from them(vs 12)? How would you answer such a question today? You can examine Moses’ answer to that question in verses 12-13 but I think that it is a good exercise for us to answer that question to ourselves. He also tells them to circumcise their heart and do not stiffen their necks any longer (16). Circumcision was a very important process for the Israelite to keep. But what do you think it means for someone to circumcise their heart?
