Deuteronômio 10:3 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 10:3

And I made an ark of shittim wood
That is, ordered it to be made, and it was made by Bezaleel, and that of shittim wood: so the ark that was put into the holy of holies was made of this wood; see (See Gill on Exodus 25:10), (See Gill on Exodus 37:1),

and hewed two tables of stone like unto the first;
two marble ones, as the Targum of Jonathan; that is, he ordered them to be hewed, and took care that they should be exactly made as the former were, of which he had perfect knowledge, having received them of the Lord, and brought them with him down the mount:

and went up into the mount, having the two tables in my hand;
in order to have the words of the law, the ten commands, written on them, these being only hewn stones, without anything on them: they were very probably marble, of which great quantities were near at hand.

Deuteronômio 10:3 In-Context

1 Naquele mesmo tempo me disse o Senhor: Alisa duas tábuas de pedra, como as primeiras, e sobe a mim ao monte, e faze uma arca de madeira.
2 Nessas tábuas escreverei as palavras que estavam nas primeras tábuas, que quebras-te, e as porás na arca.
3 Assim, fiz ume arca de madeira de acácia, alisei duas tábuas de pedra, como as primeiras, e subi ao monte com as duas tábuas nas mãos.
4 Então o Senhor escreveu nas tábuas, conforme a primeira escritura, os dez mandamentos, que ele vos falara no monte, do meio do fogo, no dia da assembléia; e o Senhor mas deu a mim.
5 Virei-me, pois, desci do monte e pus as tábuas na arca que fizera; e ali estão, como o Senhor me ordenou.
