Free Downloads The Ten Commandments: Still The Best Moral Code
The most important words ever written are the Ten Commandments. These words changed the world when they were first presented at Mt. Sinai to Israelites, and they are changing it now. They are the foundation stones of Western Civilization.Given their staggering importance, you would think that all societies, and certainly our educational and religious institutions, would be intent on studying them closely. Sadly, this is not the case. Our schools ignore them and our churches and synagogues take them for granted. But here's a simple test: Who among us can even name all of the Ten Commandments? And even among those who can name them, how many can explain them in a way that makes sense to the modern eye and ear?If you are a person of faith, this book will strengthen it; if you are agnostic it will force you to rethink your doubts; if you're atheist, it will test your convictions. For people who have thought little about the Ten Commandments, as well as for those who have a sophisticated understanding of them, it will be a revelation.That's a lot to ask of a little book, but the only thing that's little here is the length. The ideas are very big.

Dennis Prager is a moral giant. I cannot say enough good things about his newest book The Ten Commandments: Still the Best Moral Code. This book is simple, but not "simplistic" like Dennis says! He has taught the Old Testament in LA for over 25 years or so. I really trust him and his words, and if you have not read Happiness is a Serious Problem, order it today! A must read. The Ten Commandments Book shares a funny story. I was in the dental chair getting my second root canal, and had this book on my lap as I was reading it at the time and brought it from home to my appointment to distract me. Well, the Endodontist came in to the room and said "hey, did you get that in the front of my office? I just bought 9 of those on ." LOL! It was indeed my book. He went on and on to say how valuable the book is and so did I. He got it for his children and wife, and I passed it on to my 23 year old daughter, and will then make sure my 2 other kids read it (oh, and my mom wants to)! He is such a wise man. I would not want to publicly get in an argument with him. His ideas just make sense and they are backed with facts and in this case, Old Testament knowledge and wisdom. It shows us how we come up with some of our policies in this country. Who knew that Thou Shall Not Kill really means Thou Shall Not MURDER? I did not know and I am a lifelong Catholic. This book opened my eyes on so many levels, yet stayed with me because it was concise, at less than 100 pages. I did not get boggled down in facts but retained what I learned. I am sure this was part of his idea in writing the book, because this could have been a 400 page book with a lot of details and history. But, in a day and age of information overload, I appreciated its brevity and depth. Well done Mr. Prager.
