God gave us the commandments to give us some basic guidelines of how to live our lives. He saw that we were sinning, and didn't know the correct god-given path to follow. With these guidelines, we can interpret them how we truly beleive is right to live a moral life in gods footsteps. Jesus followed these commandments, or rules, and had a life vacant of sin.  We can persue a similar fate by following these commandments to the best of our abilities.-Colin

The main purpose of God creating the Commandments was to set the rules of life for his people. The Israelites
needed a foundation, something to follow when they were set free. In creating the commandments, this was that something that they needed, now becoming a reality.

God made the make the Ten Commandments to keep us as humans moral. Because God gave us the gift of free will, we are inclined to do what pleases us and not what is morally right. So, God had to give us the Commandments so that we could live good, moral, and humble lives under him. He also created the Commandments so that we could begin to know what morals feels like, and to give a common structure of rules to our lives.

God generously gave us the Ten Commandments as He wanted humans to have a societal structures. Paired with a conscience, God wanted to increase the capacity for human reasoning and understanding for others. In addition to this, God separated the commandments respectively so that humans would know the separation between others and God and how they intertwine.

God say his Israelite brethren sinning in the desert, so He saw that he needed guidance.  Without this guidance, humans would have no purpose. The purpose the humans had after the Ten commandments were made was to live a life of grace and humility. The Commandments gave a structure, so human lives would not be chaotic.
