1.) Question by Dr. Melvin M. Weiner of Newton Centre, Massachusetts, U. S. A.:

Answer: There are, indeed, other possibilities of arranging the 320 letters of the mere (beli-Mah) text of the Ten Commandments on front and reverse of the two Tablets of the Law. These rejected alternatives are for the first time being published in the internet on this website as part of the answer, and may help to understand why the inscription was actually written in 10 boustrophedon columns of 32 letters each. The fact that each tablet consists of 10 by 15 = 150 cubic letter-units results from the geometry of the Ark of the Covenant and the decimal subdivision of the cubit (Ammah) into 10 parts known in biblical Hebrew as a Peka. The thickness of the tablets, being one Peka or letter-unit, results from boustrophedon writing, if the letter connecting front and reverse is written on top of the tablets.

The first rejected alternative arranges the 320 letters in 32 horizontal lines of 10 letters each, written from right to left. Why 10 vertical columns of 32 letters are to be preferred to 32 horizontal lines of 10 letters is because of the following reasons:

1. The name of the so-called "Ten Commandments", which in the original Hebrew are never designated as 10 Mitzwot "commandments", but as the 10 Devarim "words": In Mosaical Hebrew Davar means each of the 10 "drifts" or lines drawn by the ploughing bull being "driven" from one end of the field or writing area to the other, and hence is synonymous with the Greek concept of boustrophedon or alternating writing directions.
2. As I discovered, the graphical details of the Tablets of the Law, written boustrophedon in 10 lines of 32 letters each, are contained in the first chapter of the Sepher Yetzirah, one of the most ancient sources of Jewish mysticism known as Kabbalah, where the boustrophedon lines or 10 Devarim are known as the 10 Sephirot. Hence Kabbalah is but a mystification of the graphical details of the Mosaical Tablets of the Law.
3. The Zakhor/Shamor and Shaker/Shawa divergencies between the Decalogue texts according to Exodus and Deuteronomy: Only if written in 10 vertical columns, do these diverging letters happen to stand in the upper left-hand corner on the front of the second tablet, which were obviously rendered partially illegible by the same scratch.
4. The 32 horizontal lines of 10 letters may lead to confusion, unless some sort of pagination is added, whereas no such problem exists with 10 boustrophedon columns of 32 letters, once the first letter Aleph of the first word "Anokhi" is found.

The second rejected alternative avoids the possible confusion inherent in the previous rejected alternative by a horizontal boustrophedon arrangement, and thus has 15 additional connecting letters between the lines on each tablet or 350 instead of 320 letters for the whole text. The other reasons, however, for rejecting this alternative do remain. After all, the text on the Tablets of the Law is not called the 32 Devarim, but the 10 Devarim or Ten Commandments.
