I went to a little mission just
lately and they said it was a
sin to smoke. I have asked
a few people about this, even
my minister. Can you answer
it for me?"
Answer: The Bible does not
help us very much on this. I
do not know Of any code Of
religious law which specifies
that smoking is a sin.
On the other hand, there are
some churches which ask their
clergy and even their lay mem
bers to refrain from various
worldly pleasures" in order to
make their lives more COM
pletely dedicated to God. The
Methodist Church, for example
has historically directed that
its ministers avoid "the use of
tobacco in any form" Some
Methodist clergymen do smoke
The principle has been also ap-
piled to the laity but is not

Query on Commandments Stone
By DIR. CARLYLE ADAMS

Question: Has it ever been established what kind
of stone was used in writing the original Ten Com
mandments? Since these were broken, was different
stone used for the second writing of these laws?"
Answer: The kind of stone used is not established
by the Scriptural record. One would suppose it to
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1961-11-18

have been stone available at
Mount Sinai. Biblical scholars
do not agree as to the exact
location Of Mt. Sinai but pre-
sumo it to have been in the
southern part of the peninsula
which extends between the two
upper arms Of the Red Sea.
The inscribing of the first
tablets of stone with the Ten
Commandments is recorded in
the goth chapter of Exodus.
Then in the 34th chapter there
is the account of the shock
Moses experienced, when having
returned from the mountain
and finding his people worship
ing q golden calf, he dashed
the tablets of stone to the
ground and broke them.
Then, according to Exodus
34:4. Moses "cut two tablets
of stone like the first" The
subsequent verses indicate that
the basic Commandments were
renewed in a form similar to
their first offering. In reading
this passage, one ought to COM
pare it with Deuteronomy 10:
is.
