Deuteronomio 10:2

2 E io scriverò in su quelle Tavole le parole ch’erano in su le primiere che tu spezzasti; e tu le metterai dentro a quell’Arca.

Deuteronomio 10:2 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 10:2

And I will write on the tables the words that were in the first
tables, which thou brakest
^F1 Though they were hewn by Moses, the writing on them was the Lord's; and the very same laws, in the same words, without any alteration or variation, were written by him on these as on the former; partly to show the authenticity of them, that they were of God and not Moses, of a divine original and not human; and partly to show the invariableness of them, that no change had been made in them, though they had been broken by the people; of which Moses's breaking the tables was a representation;

and thou shall put them in the ark;
which being a type of Christ may signify the fulfilment of the law by him, who is the end, the fulfilling end of the law for righteousness to every believer; and that as this was in his heart to fulfil it, so it is in his hand as a rule of faith and conversation to his people.

Deuteronomio 10:2 In-Context

1 IN quel tempo il Signore mi disse: Tagliati due Tavole di pietra, simili alle primiere; poi sali a me in sul monte; fatti ancora un’Arca di legno.

2 E io scriverò in su quelle Tavole le parole ch’erano in su le primiere che tu spezzasti; e tu le metterai dentro a quell’Arca.

3 E io feci un’Arca di legno di Sittim, e tagliai due Tavole di pietra, simili alle primiere; poi salii in sul monte, avendo quelle due Tavole in mano.

4 Ed egli scrisse in su quelle Tavole, conforme alla prima scrittura, le dieci parole, che il Signore vi avea pronunziate nel monte, di mezzo al fuoco, al giorno della raunanza. E il Signore me le diede.

5 Allora io mi rivolsi indietro, e discesi giù dal monte, e posi quelle Tavole nell’Arca che io avea fatta, e son restate quivi; come il Signore mi avea comandato.
