Parshas Yisro
We could speculate and suggest that this, the torah, and indeed all of yiddishkeit, is about forming a relationship. The 10 Dibros, in one way, is THE secret that teaches us the principles and fundamentals for people forming a bond with each other, and people connecting with the Master of the Universe. How is this done? How do we approach Hashem, relate to Him, dare we say, come CLOSE to Him?
Well, there are 2 sides of the Aseres Hadibros. Five and Five. We are taught that each commandment on one tablet is keneged a commandment on the other tablet. 1-6, 2-7, 3-8, 4-9, and 5-10. The first five are mitzvos that are Bein Odom LaMokom, and the second five are mitzvos Bein Odom LaChaveiroy. So with this idea, we can suggest that we were presented at Har Sinai five fundamental principles of a relationship. Five rules, 10 commandments. Because one cannot form a relationship with the Creator of the World without knowing the basic rules of having a relationship with another human being.
Rule #2 – Loyalty- Irreplaceable:
So with all this, we can now use the Aseres Hadibros to unlock the secret to form a solid relationship for both man and man, and man and G-d, which is the ultimate purpose of Torah and Judaism. As such it certainly deserved and warranted a spectacular event in order to instill in us a recognition of the seriousness, goodness and preciousness of G-d and His Torah.
