The Ten Commandments were inscribed on two tablets. On the first tablet were five statements about the relationship between a person and his or her Creator (God and parents). The second five focus on the relationship between a person and his or her peers. This design of the tablets teaches us that in order to be complete, people must cultivate proper relationships with their peers just as much as they form a connection with God. A person who is devout and sensitive in matters relating to God, but is remiss in his treatment of other people, is neglecting half of the human purpose in the world.
