The question refers to Chief Seattle's speech - a Speech by the chief of the Duwamish people.
In his speech, he says:
"Your religion was written on tablets of stone by the iron finger of an angry God, lest you might forget it. "
So the correct answer is B.
It also makes sense, since it's not Moses who wrote on the tablets, but who received the tablets.
I believe the third stanza is the correct answer:
<span>Seven captains at our seven gates
Thundered; for each a champion waits,
Each left behind his armor bright,
Trophy for Zeus who turns the fight;
Save two alone, that ill-starred pair
One mother to one father bare,
Who lance in rest, one 'gainst the other
Drave, and both perished, brother slain by brother.
These lines tell the story of what happened immediately prior to the play Antigone. It describes the events of when her two brothers fought and kill each other in battle, which is the reason why the play Antigone exists. The first two stanzas describe events from a long time ago, and the fourth one are current events. The third one gives a background to the story, which is why I'd pick that option.
