I have some puzzling questions regarding God’s Laws. I don't know which to follow! I'm confused
In
Exodus 20, God gives Moses the 10 commandments on 2 stone tablets, but Moses smashed them because of the Golden Calf incident.

“You shall have no other gods before[a] me.
“You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me,but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
“You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.
“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates. For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.
“Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you.
“You shall not murder.[c]
“You shall not commit adultery.
“You shall not steal.
“You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
“You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his male servant, or his female servant, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor's.”
The 10 commandments :
1. Have no other gods before Yahweh
2.
No Idolatry3. Take God’s Name in vain
4.
Keep the Sabbath5. Honour parents
6. No killing
7. No adultery
8. No stealing
9. No bearing false witness
10. No coveting
So, in Exodus 34, Yahweh commands Moses to chisel 2 stone tablets again, so that he could give the 10 commandments once again.
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 – Exodus 34:1

The LORD said:
I promise to perform miracles for you that have never been seen anywhere on earth. Neighboring nations will stand in fear and know that I was the one who did these marvelous things. I will force out the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, but you must do what I command you today. Don't make treaties with any of those people. If you do, it will be like falling into a trap. Instead, you must destroy their altars and tear down the sacred poles[b] they use in the worship of the goddess Asherah. I demand your complete loyalty—you must not worship any other god! Don't make treaties with the people there, or you will soon find yourselves worshiping their gods and taking part in their sacrificial meals. 16 Your men will even marry their women and be influenced to worship their gods.
Don't make metal images of gods.
Don't fail to observe the Festival of Thin Bread in the month of Abib.[c] Obey me and eat bread without yeast for seven days during Abib, because that is the month you left Egypt.
The first-born males of your families and of your flocks and herds belong to me.
You can save the life of a first-born donkey[d] by sacrificing a lamb; if you don't, you must break the donkey's neck. You must save every first-born son.
Bring an offering every time you come to worship.
Work for six days and rest on the seventh day, even during the seasons for plowing and harvesting. Celebrate the Harvest Festival[e] each spring when you start harvesting your wheat, and celebrate the Festival of Shelters[f] each autumn when you pick your fruit.
Your men must come to worship me three times a year, because I am the LORD God of Israel. As you advance, I will force the nations out of your land and enlarge your borders. Then no one will try to take your property when you come to worship me these three times each year.
When you sacrifice an animal on the altar, don't offer bread made with yeast. And don't save any part of the Passover meal for the next day.
I am the LORD your God, and you must bring the first part of your harvest to the place of worship.
Don't boil a young goat in its mother's milk.
The LORD told Moses to put these laws in writing, as part of his agreement with Israel.
- Exodus 34:10-27

Hey! There appears to be 2 different sets of the 10 commandments? How come?! Yahweh suffering from dementia? ROFLMAO
Either that, or Moses met an entirely different God when he went up Mt. Sinai the 2nd time around. Probably an agriculture deity instead of Yahweh
