Ten Commandments-Written By The Hand Of God?
Bible Questions Answered:
“Did God write the ten commandments
with his hand like it says...?”
Sheila/ Winnipeg, Canada (Manitoba)
Bible Answer:
Our God is not in the flesh, as we are,
that is “God The Father, and God The Holy Spirit” are not.
John 4:23.24 KJV (Jesus stated
that...)
23 But the hour cometh, and now is,
when the true worshipers shall worship The Father in spirit and in
truth: for The Father seeketh such to worship Him.
24 God is a Spirit: and they
that worship Him must worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.
Anthropomorphism: The act of
giving the characteristics of humans to an animal, a god or
an inanimate thing.

The Finger Of God:
Exodus 8:16-19 NLT (The Plague
of Gnats.)
16 So The Lord said to Moses, “Tell
Aaron, ‘Raise your staff and strike the ground. The dust will turn
into swarms of gnats throughout the land of Egypt.’”
17 So Moses and Aaron did just as
The Lord had commanded them. When Aaron raised his hand and struck
the ground with his staff, gnats infested the entire land, covering
the Egyptians and their animals. All the dust in the land of Egypt
turned into gnats.
18 Pharaoh’s magicians tried to do
the same thing with their secret arts, but this time they failed. And
the gnats covered everyone, people and animals alike.
19 “This is the finger of
God!” the magicians exclaimed to Pharaoh. But Pharaoh’s
heart remained hard. He wouldn’t listen to them, just as The Lord
had predicted.
Psalm 8:3 KJV
When I consider thy heavens, the
work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou
hast ordained;
Daniel 5:5 KJV
(Belshazzar's kingdom finished.)
5 In the same hour came forth
fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the
candlestick upon the plaster of the wall of the king's palace: and
the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.
25 And this is the writing that was
written, Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin.
26 This is the interpretation of the
thing: Mene; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.
27 Tekel; Thou art weighed in the
balances, and art found wanting.
28 Peres; Thy kingdom is divided,
and given to the Medes and Persians.
Luke 11:20 KJV
(Jesus, referring to the power of God.)
But if I with the finger of
God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon
you.
The Hand Of
God:
I Samuel 5:11,12
KJV (The Philistine rulers considered death and sickness,
judgment, the very hand of God.)
11 So they sent and gathered
together all the lords of the Philistines, and said, Send away the
ark of The God Of Israel, and let it go again to his own place, that
it slay us not, and our people: for there was a deadly destruction
throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy
there.
12 And the men that died not were
smitten with the emerods (tumors):
and the cry of the city went up to heaven.
The Eyes Of
God:
Psalm 11:4 KJV
The Lord is in His holy temple, The Lord's throne is in heaven:
His eyes behold, His eyelids try, the children of men.
All these are anthropomorphic descriptions of God, and yet, God is a
Spirit, not with a fleshly body.
And yet we mortals, have been created …
Genesis 1:27 KJV
So God created man in His own image, in the image of God created
He him; male and female created He them.
God sees, God hears, God knows, etc. etc.
Did God, write the ten commandments by a Spirit Hand, perhaps.
One thing we do know as Jesus implied, it was certainly by the power
of The Living God.
