Not just about Moses, whose origin story leaves open questions, this book looks back at the time when the commandments were written, how the belief in one all powerful God set the Israelites apart from other ancient peoples, and the roles the Ten Commandments have played in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. It also looks at what each individual commandment means and how together they form the basis of leading a moral life as well as forming a just government.
