Interesting that the Lord has objects (the law in an earlier passage from Deuteronomy when the Lord tells Moses to write down the words, and now--- these stones) as tools to remind the Israelites of His faithfulness and to teach their children about Him.
Thinking about "tools"---physical reminders of spiritual things--it seems the "high church" (Catholics, Episcopals, Methodists) are more apt to incorporate such touchstones. Is the Reformed Church (Protestants) unnecessarily leery of such potential "idols" as they often view them? Or are they adding to the law unnecessarily?
