Deuteronomy 10:4-6
New English Translation

4 The Lord[a] then wrote on the tablets the same words,[b] the Ten Commandments,[c] which he[d] had spoken to you at the mountain from the middle of the fire at the time of that assembly, and he[e] gave them to me. 5 Then I turned, went down the mountain, and placed the tablets into the ark I had made—they are still there, just as the Lord commanded me.

Conclusion of the Historical Résumé

6 During those days the Israelites traveled from Beeroth Bene Jaakan[f] to Moserah.[g] There Aaron died and was buried, and his son Eleazar became priest in his place.

Footnotes

  1. Deuteronomy 10:4 tn Heb “he”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  2. Deuteronomy 10:4 tn Heb “according to the former writing.” See note on the phrase “the same words” in v. 2.
  3. Deuteronomy 10:4 tn Heb “ten words.” The “Ten Commandments” are known in Hebrew as the “Ten Words,” which in Greek became the “Decalogue.”
  4. Deuteronomy 10:4 tn Heb “the Lord.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.
  5. Deuteronomy 10:4 tn Heb “the Lord.” See note on “he” earlier in this verse.
  6. Deuteronomy 10:6 sn Beeroth Bene Jaakan. This Hebrew name could be translated “the wells of Bene Jaakan” or “the wells of the sons of Jaakan,” a site whose location cannot be determined (cf. Num 33:31-32; 1 Chr 1:42).
  7. Deuteronomy 10:6 sn Moserah. Since Aaron in other texts (Num 20:28; 33:38) is said to have died on Mount Hor, this must be the Arabah region in which Hor was located.
