"So I took hold of the two tablets and threw them from my two hands and smashed them before your very eyes! Then, as before, I fell down before the Lord for another forty days and forty nights; I did not eat food or drink water, because of all the sin you had committed by doing what was evil in the sight of the Lord to provoke him to anger. For I was afraid of the anger and absolute fury which the Lord had against you, enough divine fury to destroy you, but the Lord listened to me that time also." ~Deuteronomy 9:17-19
—A beautiful picture of what You were about to do in Jesus can be found here, Lord. Grant us eyes to see, ears to hear and minds that understand it. The disobedience of Your people brought about Your Word being broken and destroyed, but if we keep reading we find in chapter 10 that You resurrected Your Word. Jesus, the Word made flesh, was broken and died because of our disobedience, but He was made whole and brought back to life!
