What is the history of this piece? Why is it a private piece rather than an archeological piece?

0:36 It weighs 115 lbs?? 🤔 I know this isn't the original, but if the original stone tablets Moses carried down from Mt Sinai weighed about that much, then I'd say Moses was in good shape for an old guy... 😳

What significance does the Ten Commandments tablet hold in religious history? 📜

[tombrenes]

This should belong to the people of moses trust, place a museum on the base of the mountain, using old school paper of the time scan and replicate it and sell charcoal rubbing, also sell 3D printed tablets big bible size on a book stand with a moses seal

This will sell for 10s to possibly 100s of millions to someone in the world.

The 1, 500-year-old Ten Commandments tablet is such an incredible piece of history! It’s amazing to see how this artifact reflects ancient Samaritan traditions and serves as a tangible link to moral codes that shaped Western civilization. Truly priceless!

Auctioning sacred religious documents seems so sacreligious but also completely American.

"I am Orc, wreath'd round the accursed tree:
The times are ended: shadows pass the morning gins to break:
The fiery joy, that Urizen perverted to ten commands,
What night he led the starry hosts thro' the wide wilderness:
That stony law I stamp to dust: and scatter religion abroad
To the four winds as a torn book, & none shall gather the leaves."
-William Blake

This is sad all for money, the holiest tablet so i can buy a yacht and an i phone

[Skeletone]

That's not the real one

It's still in the arc like it says in Hebrews

Who’re you kidding? - is there ANY doubt this is going to end up in Israel one way or another? - a consortium of Jews already has their checkbooks open and are writing out blank checks even as we speak.😂🎉
