'Tablets' in the Bible
He declared to you his covenant, which he commanded you to observe the Ten Commandments that he wrote on two stone tablets.
"The LORD declared these commands in a loud voice to your entire assembly on the mountain from out of the fire and dark clouds, and nothing more was added. He inscribed them on two tablets of stone and gave them to me.
Then I went up to the mountain to receive the two stone Tablets of the Covenant that the LORD had established with you. I stayed on the mountain for 40 days and nights without eating food or drinking water.
Then the LORD gave me the two stone tablets on which God inscribed with his own finger all the words that the LORD spoke to you on the mountain from the middle of the fire that day when you were all assembled together.
At the end of 40 days and nights, the LORD gave to me the two stone Tablets of the Covenant.
"So I turned and went down from the mountain while the mountain was on fire. The two Tablets of the Covenant were in both of my hands.
So I grabbed the two tablets and then threw them out of my hands, breaking them before your eyes.
"At that time, the LORD told me, "Chisel two tablets of stone for yourself just like the first ones, and then come up to me on the mountain. Also make for yourself a wooden chest.
I'll write on the tablets what was on the first tablets that you broke. Then place them in the wooden chest.'
So I made a chest out of acacia wood and chiseled two tablets of stones just like the first ones. Then I went up the mountain with the two tablets in my hands.
Then the LORD inscribed on the tablets what he wrote before, that is, the Ten Commandments that the LORD declared to you on the mountain from the middle of the fire during the day of the assembly. And the LORD gave them to me.
Then I turned, went down the mountain, and placed the tablets in the chest that I had made. They are there now, just as the LORD commanded me."
