But what do the commandments really stand for? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAccording to polls, less than half of all Americans can even name more than four of them. Fewer still can name all ten or have a clear idea of the ideals they were meant to promote. For most of us, agnostics and faithful alike, they have been relegated to the level of a symbol, and the teachings they contain are all but forgotten. In Western life today, the Ten Commandments are everywhere-- except where we need them most. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In \u003ci\u003eThe Ten Commandments, \u003c\/i\u003eDavid Hazony offers a powerful new look at our most venerable moral text. Combining a fresh reading of the Old Testament's most riveting stories and ancient rabbinic legends with a fearless exploration of what ails society today, Hazony shows that the Ten Commandments are not just a set of obscure laws but encapsulate a deeply valuable approach to life--one that is as relevant now as it was when they first appeared more than two millennia ago.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.76 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 18, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42656524501088,"sku":"9781416562405","price":34.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1922\/9280\/files\/NDB1dEVCSks2clJpWXhiMUVGMTVNdz09.webp?v=1774198258","url":"https:\/\/bijoucc.myshopify.com\/products\/ten-commandments-how-our-most-ancient-moral-text-can-renew-modern-life-paperback-1","provider":"CARIBBEAN CONNECT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
