What is the difference between the first set of the Ten Commandments and the second set that the Israelites received?

• The first was miraculously made by G-d on Mount Sinai; the second was made by Moshe before he climbed Mount Sinai

• The first had more commandments on it; the second had less

• There is absolutely no difference at all

Answer explanation

The sages say that the 1st set was said to be made out of precious jewels while the 2nd was simple stone.

Another interesting fun fact from the sages is that the words on the 1st set of laws were miraculously cut in such a way that they could be read on both the back and the front of the tablets!

(obviously, it was impossible for Moshe to do that with the 2nd set.)
