This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





To wit, the two tables of stone, wherein the decalogue was written, called the



testimony here, and Exo_30:6 Lev_16:13; and more fully the tables of the testimony, Exo_31:18 Num_1:50; because they were witnesses of that covenant made between God and his people, whence they are called the tables of the covenant, Deu_9:9, and the ark, the ark of the covenant, Num_10:33. This being as a public record both of God’s mercy promised to them, and of the duty and conditions required of them. See Exo_16:34.
