The Book of Exodus wants us to realize that human beings participated in the creation of the Torah. But it does not want us to be too sure about how far that participation extended.
When I read that, another idea came to me.
Perhaps G‑d wrote the 10 commandments on the stone tablets. All the other commandments would take up too much space on the stone, so Moses wrote them on a scroll.
Let's add your idea to the commentaries!
But, knowing the Sages of the time, they probably already thought of that!
Still, it's a great idea.
Thank you!
Sometimes I think it would be nice if there were film footage and interviews from that time.
