14. With this Finger, as we read, God wrote
on those tables of stone which Moses received. For God did not
with a finger of flesh write the forms and portions of those letters
which we read, but gave the law by His Spirit. And so the Apostle
says: “For the Law is spiritual, which, indeed, is written
not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of
stone, but on fleshy tables of the heart.” 2 Cor. iii. 3. For if the letter of the Apostle is
written in the Spirit, what hinders us from believing that the Law of
God was written not with ink, but with the Spirit of God, which
certainly does not stain but enlightens the secret places of our heart
and mind?
