2 Samuel 22 refers back to one of my many favorite passages within the Psalms.
29For You, O LORD, are my lamp;
the LORD lights up my darkness.
30For in You I can charge an army;
with my God I can scale a wall.
31As for God, His way is perfect;
the word of the LORD is flawless.
He is a shield to all
who take refuge in Him.
and verse 32 says,
For who is God besides the LORD? And who is the Rock except our God?…
so, do I go too far to consider the Tablets to also be a type or shadow of Him? "I will hide you in the crevice of the rock."

exodus 20 on the mountain God verbally speaks Commandments
exodus 21 on the mountain God then gives the Ordinances.
Deut 4:
13 And He declared unto you His covenant, which He commanded you to perform, even the ten words; and He wrote them upon two tables of stone.
1. God declared His Covenant and Commanded to be performed
2. He even gave the Commandments at that time
so Verse 13, Moses, tells the People remember God delivered His Covenant and the 10 Commandments [Exodus 20/21]
Verse 14, MOSES, is charged to TEACH the meanings.
i love this Passage.

No I think that's right, and it's amazingly deep because Moses smashing the tablets is a type of Christ breaking Christ, breaking His body for us - and likewise the ark is a type of Christ, with Christ hidden in Christ, too - just as it is wood ((His humanity)) covered with gold ((His deity))

But Deuteronomy 29:9 says "all thw words of this covenant" - - including all those statutes, ordinances and judgments etc.
just as James cites Leviticus 19 saying breaking any part of the Law is breaking all the Law.
when Jesus says whoever breaks the least commandment...
Do you seriously think He's only talking about 40% of the decalogue? same God said all the law is based on an obscure mere "statute" in Deuteronomy 6, calling it the greatest "commandment"

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,
are you Baptist.
now, i know what's happening.
Baptists believe The Ten Commandments are a summary of the requirements of a works covenant (called the "Old Covenant"), given on Mount Sinai to the nascent nation of Israel.

tho i agree physical H2O baptism is symbolic of a spiritual reality, not the substance.
maybe we should mention women's clothing just to make sure we hit all the hot buttons at once hahaha
