Deuteronomy 27:2-3
When <03117> [on the day.]
land <0776> [unto the.]
great stones <01419 068> [great stones.]
cover .... plaster <07874> [and plaister.]
Houbigant and others are of opinion that the original words, {wesadta othom beseed}, should be rendered "thou shalt cement them with cement," because this was intended to be a durable monument. Some suppose that the writing was to be in relievo, and that the spaces were to be filled up by the mortar or cement; as is frequently the case with eastern inscriptions.
inscribe <03789> [thou shalt.]
law <08451> [this law.]
This law probably means only the blessings and curses mentioned in this and the following chapter; which indeed contain an epitome of the whole law.
land .......... land <0776> [a land.]
Deuteronomy 27:8
inscribe <03789> [thou shalt.]
making ... clear <03190 0874> [very plainly.]
