  • Losing Moses on the Freewayby Chris Hedges

    Simon & Schuster 2005; US$ 10.99

    The 10 Commandments -- the laws given to Moses by God -- are beyond the scope of human law. They are rules meant to hold us together but, when dishonored, they lead to discord and violence. In this fierce, articulate narrative, Hedges, who graduated from seminary at Harvard Divinity School, looks through the lens of each commandment to examine the moral ruin of American society. With urgency and passion, he challenges readers to take a hard look at the disconnect between their supposed values and the shallow, self-absorbed lives many people actually lead. Taking examples from his personal life and twenty years of reporting, Hedges explores one commandment at a time, each through a particular social group. With each story, he reveals the... more...

  • Shattered Tabletsby David Klinghoffer

    Doubleday Publishing 2007; US$ 13.99

    Is morality based on some essential truth or is it defined by society? In this highly original critique of American social mores and popular culture, David Klinghoffer argues that the Ten Commandments are essential to maintaining a morally healthy society. With the meticulousness of a scholar, he begins by excavating the meaning of the Commandments. Drawing on the millennia-old rabbinical work Mechilta , he explains that the Decalogue was written on two tablets to show that when a country neglects the Commandments written on the first tablet—those having to do with the relationship between God and people—the interpersonal relationships described on the second tablet suffer irreparable damage as well. Addressing such timely topics... more...

  • Written in Stoneby Philip Graham Ryken

  • Decalogue in Jewish and Christian Traditionby Henning Graf Reventlow; Yair Hoffman

    Continuum International Publishing 2010; US$ 100.00

    This collection of papers arrives from the eighth annual symposium between the Chaim Rosenberg School of Jewish Studies of Tel Aviv University and the Faculty of Protestant Theology of the University of Ruhr, Bochum held in Bochum, June 2007. The general theme of the Decalogue was examined in its various uses by both Jewish and Christian traditions throughout the centuries to the present.Three papers deal with the origin of the Decalogue: Yair Hoffman on the rare mentioning of the Decalogue in the Hebrew Bible outside the Torah; E. L. Greenstein considers that already A. ibn Ezra doubted that God himself spoke in the Ten Commandments and states that more likely their rhetoric indicates it was Moses who proclaimed the Decalogue; A. Bar-Tour... more...

  • The Kingdom at Warby Alan Vincent; Guillermo Maldonado

    Destiny Image, Inc. 2011; US$ 16.99

    From India to England and across the United States, The Kingdom at War takes an exciting, comprehensive, and prophetic view of the structure and power of today’s church. In this expertly crafted teaching, you learn how the church—and you—have been given authority to overcome the enemy and see the establishment of the Kingdom of God in these last days.   “It was during a long fast that I first began to see that building the heavenly City of Jerusalem spiritually over a region or a particular physical city on earth was the means that God had given for powerfully advancing the Kingdom of God,” writes the author whose life of prophecy and revelation has brought many to a deeper and more exciting relationship... more...

  • Gli Inni di Sinesio di Cireneby Idalgo Baldi

    Walter de Gruyter 2011; US$ 120.00

    No exhaustive study is available today about the history of Synesius? poetic corpus. The book offers a set of researches, dealing with the preservation of the original collection and the order of its single pieces. A new assessment of the internal structure of the entire corpus in general and of single hymns in particular is achieved by a revision of the manuscript tradition and the study of the relationship between Synesius? philosophical and religious system of thought and the cultural framework of Late Antiquity. The results lead to a completely new text arrangement. more...
