The Ten Commandments

Still the Best Moral Code

By: Dennis Prager

Narrated by: Lee Robertson

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 short book, but the only thing that's short here is the length. The ideas are very big.

What/Who does our objective law stand on? Is slavery justified in the Bible? What keeps a society intact?

Excellent explanation!

Thank you Dennis for such an important work you have done here. Finally all the 10 make sense. Even atheists will find this book very valuable.

Great exposition of meaning

Excellent, succinct discussion of the meaning of the Ten Commandments… enjoyed it and highly recommend

it's a good listen.

I just finished Happiness Is A Serious Problem by Dennis Prager and enjoyed it so much I decided to obtain the audible version of another book of his. I wasn't disappointed. He delivered a well thought out explanation of the commandments and related it to today's person.

Very good

I think k it’s the best summary and explanation of meaning and logic of 10 commandments.
Not only Christians and Jews , but everyone (including New Age, Agnostics and Atheists) , will benefit from listening to this program. Highly recommend.
