Command to Write the Law on Stones

Deuteronomy 27:1-8

And Moses with the ancients of Israel commanded the people, saying: Keep every commandment that I command you this day.

And when you are passed over the Jordan into the land which the Lord thy God will give thee, thou shalt set up great stones, and shalt plaster them over with plaster,

That thou mayst write on them all the words of this law, when thou art passed over the Jordan: that thou mayst enter into the land which the Lord thy God will give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, as he swore to thy fathers.

Therefore when you are passed over the Jordan, set up the stones which I command you this day, in mount Hebal, and thou shalt plaster them with plaster:

And thou shalt build there an altar to the Lord thy God, of stones which iron hath not touched,

And of stones not fashioned nor polished: and thou shalt offer upon it holocausts to the Lord thy God:

And shalt immolate peace victims, and eat there, and feast before the Lord thy God.

And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law plainly and clearly.
