"Finger of God" (Hebrew: אֶצְבַּע אֱלֹהִים ’eṣba‘ ’Ĕlōhîm) is a phrase used in the Torah, translated into the Christian Bible. In Exodus 8:15 it is used during the plagues of Egypt by Pharaoh's magicians. In Exodus 31:18 and Deuteronomy 9:10 it refers to the method by which the Ten Commandments were written on the Tablets of Stone that were brought down from Mount Sinai by Moses.
It was also used once by Jesus in the Gospel of Luke to describe how he had cast out demons.
According to the Hebrew Bible, the Tablets of the Law (also Tablets of Stone, Stone Tablets, or Tablets of Testimony; Biblical Hebrew: לוּחֹת הַבְּרִית lūḥōṯ habbǝrīṯ "tablets of the covenant", לֻחֹת הָאֶבֶן luḥōṯ hāʾeḇen or לֻחֹת אֶבֶן luḥōṯ ʾeḇen or לֻחֹת אֲבָנִים luḥōṯ ʾăḇānīm "stone tablets", and לֻחֹת הָעֵדֻת luḥōṯ hāʿēḏuṯ "tablets of testimony") were the two stone tablets inscribed with the Ten Commandments when Moses ascended Mount Sinai as written in the Book of Exodus.
According to the biblical narrative, the first set of tablets, inscribed by the finger of God, (Exodus 31:18) were smashed by Moses when he was enraged by the sight of the Children of Israel worshiping a golden calf (Exodus 32:19) and the second were later chiseled out by Moses and rewritten by God (Exodus 34:1).
