Broken Stones - Rewriting Your Story

Stone and Covenant: How Did Moses Cut the Tablets? | Exodus 34: Hebrew, Teshuvah, and Granite Grace

Did Moses simply grab some rocks and hope for the best? Or did something sacred happen between the breaking and the restoration?

In this episode of True Word, Faith for LIFE! with Dr. Shawn, we unpack the dramatic moment in Exodus 34 when God commands Moses to “carve two stone tablets like the first.” But this isn’t just about tools or stone—it’s about repentance in motion, covenant responsibility, and the intimate Hebrew phrase “pesol lekha”—“cut for yourself.”

Dr. Shawn takes you deep into the Hebrew language, the cultural significance of ANE covenants, and the practical tools Moses may have used. Featuring insights from Dr. Michael Heiser and Dr. Skip Moen, this episode reveals what it meant for Moses to physically shape what God would spiritually inscribe.

📖 Featuring:• The Hebrew verb פָּסַל (pasal) — sacred craftsmanship• Bronze tools and Egyptian training• Teshuvah, obedience, and second chances• Covenant context in the Ancient Near East• God’s presence in both tablets inside the Ark

🔥 You don’t get to punt the second time. You have to prepare the stone.
