Best Answer

When Moses came down from the mountain, the Israelites had turned away into terrible sin. Adultery, and such things. They had also melted down gold and made a Golden Calf and were worshipping it. At the site of this it, angered Moses, so much that he broke the two tablets (Ten Commandments). Because he broke the two tablets out of his anger, He traveled a second time up the mountain to get another pair of tablets. Hope, this answers your question. God bless.

Moses broke the tablets of the Ten Commandments out of anger when he saw the Israelites worshiping a golden calf. He was upset by their idolatry and broke the tablets to symbolize the breaking of the covenant between God and the people.
