10376. 'The tablets of stone, written with the finger of God' means the Divine Truth there, coming from the Lord Himself. This is clear from the meaning of 'the tablets' as the law in its entirety, thus the Word, dealt with in 9416; from the meaning of 'stone' as Divine Truth on lowest levels, dealt with below; and from the meaning of 'being written with the finger of God' as coming from the Lord Himself, for what is written with anyone's finger comes from that person himself. The reason why those tablets were made of stone and the words of the law were written into the stone was that 'stone' means truth on lowest levels, and Divine Truth on lowest levels is the sense of the letter of the Word, containing the internal sense.
