Why did God write the Ten Commandments on two tablets of stone and not just one?
Exodus 34:1
ESV - 1 The Lord said to Moses, "Cut for yourself two tablets of stone like the first, and I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke.

I'm convinced it has to do with the Law of Two Witnesses, Deut. 17:6 & Deut. 19:15. We see the Law of 2 Witnesses all through the Bible. Example: Rev. 11, John 5:31-32, 37. Also, Joseph said to Pharoah, "As for the repeating of the dream twice, it means the matter is determined by God, and God will quickly bring it about". Both tablets would have been exactly alike, fulfilling the Law of 2 Witnesses.
