Many people today think the Bible, the most influential book in world
history, is not only outdated but irrelevant, irrational, and even
immoral.
This explanation of the Book of Genesis, the first book of the Bible,
demonstrates clearly and powerfully that the opposite is true. The Bible
remains profoundly relevant--both to the great issues of our day and to
each individual life. It is the greatest moral guide and source of
wisdom ever written.
Do you doubt the existence of God because you think believing in God is
irrational? This book will give you many reasons to rethink your doubts.
Do you think faith and science are in conflict? You won't after reading
this commentary on Genesis. Do you come from a dysfunctional family? It
may comfort you to know that every family discussed in Genesis was
highly dysfunctional!
The title of this commentary is "The Rational Bible" because its
approach is entirely reason-based. The reader is never asked to accept
anything on faith alone. In Dennis Prager's words, "If something I write
is not rational, I have not done my job."
The Rational Bible is the fruit of Dennis Prager's forty years of
teaching the Bible--whose Hebrew grammar and vocabulary he has
mastered--to people of every faith and no faith at all. On virtually
every page, you will discover how the text relates to the contemporary
world in general and to you personally. His goal: to change your
mind--and, as a result, to change your life.
