እግዚአብሔር ሕጉን ለምን በድንጋይ ጽላቶች ላይ ጻፈ??

50 ከፋሲካ በኋላ ቀናት (Pesach, Pascha), እግዚአብሔር ፈቃዱን ለሕዝቡ አሳወቀ, via Moses. God wrote His law with His finger on two tables of stone. But why did God write His law on stone? Why did the commandments of God had to be written on stone? What do the tables of stone in the Bible mean?

God wrote His law on tables of stone

And the Lord said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them (ዘፀአት 24:12)

God wrote the ten commandments on the two tables of stone by His finger. God revealed የእሱ ፈቃድ and made His will visible to His people. These tables of stone represented the heart of stone of the carnal people, who were still አሮጌው ፍጥረት.

ሕጌን በልባቸው ውስጥ አደርጋለሁ

ሙሴ’ job was to teach the people of God His law and commandments, so that they would all get to know His will.

Everyone knew His will, but it was up to each one of them if they would keep His commandments in their hearts, and walk in His way.

እውነታው ቢሆንም, that the people of God knew His will, and wholeheartedly promised to do, what the Lord commanded them to do, many lived in rebellion against God.

The people knew His will through His law and His commandments. But despite this knowledge, they lived after their own insights and according to their own will. They kept doing the things that pleased them, instead of doing the things that would please God. They loved themselves above all. አዎ, even above the Lord.

The heart of stone was replaced by a heart of flesh

50 days after the crucifixion የኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ, የመንፈስ ቅዱስ መፍሰስ ተፈጸመ. የሰው መንፈስ, who was trapped in a sinful nature and under the authority of the death, was raised from the dead, by the baptism with the Holy Spirit.

On the Day of Pentecost, አዲሱ ፍጥረት was created. This new creation didn’t have a heart of stone anymore, because the heart of stone belonged to the old creation. God Himself, removed the heart of stone and gave a heart of flesh.

ሁሉም ሰው, who would become አዲስ ፍጥረት በኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ, through አዲስ ልደት, would get a new heart; a heart of flesh.

እኔም አንድ ልብ እሰጣቸዋለሁ, በውስጣችሁም አዲስ መንፈስ አኖራለሁ; የድንጋዩንም ልብ ከሥጋቸው አወጣለሁ።, የሥጋንም ልብ ይሰጣቸዋል: በሥርዓቴ ይሄዱ ዘንድ, ሥርዓቴንም ጠብቅ, እና አድርጓቸው: እነርሱም ሕዝቤ ይሆናሉ, እኔም አምላክ እሆናቸዋለሁ. But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, ይላል ጌታ እግዚአብሔር (ሕዝቅኤል 11:19-21)

ንስሐ ግቡ, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin. Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, ይላል ጌታ እግዚአብሔር: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye (ሕዝቅኤል 18:30-32)

I will put My laws into their mind, በልባቸውም ጻፋቸው”

አዲስ ልብ እሰጣችኋለሁ, አዲስም መንፈስ በውስጣችሁ አኖራለሁ: የድንጋዩንም ልብ ከሥጋችሁ አወጣለሁ።, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put My Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in My statutes, and ye shall keep My judgments, እና አድርጓቸው. And you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be My people, and I will be your God (ሕዝቅኤል 36:26-27)

ከዚያ ወራት በኋላ ከእስራኤል ቤት ጋር የምገባው ቃል ኪዳን ይህ ነውና።, ይላል ጌታ; I will put My laws into their mind, በልባቸውም ጻፋቸው: እኔም አምላክ እሆናቸዋለሁ, ለእኔም ሕዝብ ይሆኑኛል።: እያንዳንዱም ባልንጀራውን አያስተምርም።, እያንዳንዱም ወንድሙ, እያለ ነው።, ጌታን እወቅ: ሁሉ ያውቁኛልና።, ከትንሽ እስከ ትልቁ. ለዓመፃቸውም ምሕረትን አደርጋለሁና።, ኃጢአታቸውንና ኃጢአታቸውንም ከእንግዲህ ወዲህ አላስብም። (ዕብራውያን 8:10-12)

A change of heart causes a change in nature

በኩልአዲስ ልደት, the spirit of man is raised from the dead and becomes alive. When a person becomes born again, the person will be given a new heart. That new heart will cause a change in nature.

The heart of stone, that always rebelled against God and against His will and His commandments, will be replaced by a heart of flesh. This heart of flesh possesses the nature and the will of God. The will of God; His law has been written in your new heart of flesh.

ሕግን በእምነት መሥርቱ , ሮማውያን 3:31

You are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men: Forasmuch as you are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart(2 ቆሮንቶስ 3:3)

When you are baptized with the Holy Spirit, God’s nature becomes your nature.

The Holy Spirit dwells in you and communicates with your spirit. You shall listen to Him, and walk after His will like the new creation; የእግዚአብሔር ልጅ.

አዲሱ ፍጥረት doesn’t walk in rebellion and disobedience to God the Father. But the new creation will submit to the Word of God; የሱስ, and will live after the will of the Father, ልክ እንደ ኢየሱስ.

The new creation will not harm the Kingdom of God, by habitually living in sin, and doing those things that please him/her. The new creation shall only do those things, which please the Father so that He will be exalted and glorified. Because the new creation loves God with all his mind, heart, ነፍስ, እና ጥንካሬ (እንዲሁም አንብብ: ‘እግዚአብሔርን በፍጹም ልብህ ትወዳለህን??'').

The new creation pleases the Father and Jesus Christ

Because the new creation loves God with all his heart, አእምሮ, ነፍስ, እና ጥንካሬ, the new creation shall fulfill the law of God. Because the law of God is nothing more than His will. His will already existed, before God made His will known, to Moses and His people.

እንግዲህ ሕግን በእምነት እንሽራለንን?? አያድርገው እና: አዎን, ህጉን እናቋቋማለን (ሮማውያን 3:31)

God has given us His Word and if we live after His Word and His Spirit, and do what Jesus has commanded us to do and therefore keep His commandments, then we shall fulfill the law and please the Father and Jesus Christ.
