WorldCat Summary:
Follows the Israelites' difficult journey to Canaan, including times at which they lost faith in Moses and God, God's gift of the Ten commandments, the episode in which water came out of a rock, the incident of the golden calf, and the Israelites' wandering in the wilderness.
Though no clear images of these tablets are known to exist, an enhanced closeup of a capatured frame reveals almost white lettering on the light-colored tablets. This film has the destinction of being the first to display flat-topped tablets.
It seems from these enhanced closeups that if these tablets display actual letters, then they constitute an abbreviated version of the commandments and not the entire text.
