8. The reparation of the Tables again. And here is some difference 1between the former and the later Tables: The former, God provided both for the shape and the writing, as you heard; but here the forming or polishing of the Table is Moses his work, and the writing is Gods. The first is said expressly, Exod. 34. 1. Go, hew thee two Tables of stone like the former, and I will write upon these Tables. Here is the second expressly. So Deut. 10. 1, 2, 3. so that the writing of the Law on the second Tables, was as immediately Gods work, as the former; but not the polishing or preparing of the Tables. Only there is one place of Scripture, which troubleth the Learned much, that seemeth to oppose this, and to make the writing upon the second Table to be immediately the act of Moses, and mediately only of God, because he commanded and directed Moses to do so.
