Deuteronomy 10:1 | At *that time the Lord said to me: Hew thee two tables of stone, like the former, and come up to me into the mount: and thou shalt make an ark of wood, 6: Numbers 33:31. --- ** Numbers 20:28-29. | Year of the World 2553.; Exodus xxxiv. Wood. Moses had received this injunction, before he ascended the mount the second time, Exodus 25:10. But he executed it only after he had received the second tables of the law, Exodus 37:1. (Menochius) --- Some pretend that the made an ark of setim-wood, to contain the tables, till Beseleel should have completed his, which was covered with gold, and inclosed the former. (Drusius) --- But this seems unnecessary. (Calmet) |
