Exodus 20:1-4, 7-9, 12-20
David Jeremiah wrote in one of his daily commentaries about an old toy that I remember. Maybe you do too. It’s called “Etch-a-Sketch.” Did you have one? It was a pre-electronic tablet that had two little wheels on two of the four corners. By using those wheels, you could draw all kinds of different things. The most important thing about an “Etch-a-Sketch” is that when you were finished or simply wanted to change what you’d done, you just shook it and erased what was there.
