The Ten Commandments The Significance of God's Laws in Everyday Life

A modern application of God's laws, incorporating lively discussion on the Bible and Judeo-Christian values derived from it—from the conscience of talk radio, bestselling author Dr. Laura.

The Ten Commandments are the first direct communication between a people and God. Designed to elevate our lives above mere frantic, animal existence to the sublime levels humanity is capable of experiencing, they are the blueprint of God's expectations of us and His plan for a meaningful, just, loving, and holy life. Each commandment asserts a principle, and each principle is a moral focus point for real-life issues relating to God, family, sex, work, charity, property, speech, and thought.

The Ten Commandments, available for the first time in Spanish, incorporates lively discussion of the Bible and the Judeo-Christian values derived from it. Filled with passion, emotion, and profound insights, it will enlighten, inspire, and educate a whole new audience on the meaning each commandment has in our daily lives today.
