The cost of the new one seems a bit steep so I'll probably hold off on it for a while. However, the ones already out seem to be reasonably priced.

Dennis examines the book of Exodus verse by verse, using his knowledge of the Hebrew language to provide context. For example, he explains that the Israelites had no words for the term "to be". So when God revealed himself to Moses, the words described can either be translated as

I've always heard it interpreted as "I Am". The fact that the name God gave to Moses was a verb his language didn't contain is fascinating to me.

Mr. Prager also provides short essays along the way. An example is one about Collective Guilt, discussing why the Egyptian people suffering because of their Pharaoh's intractability wasn't unjust .

I've gained quite a bit of knowledge already and I'm just starting Chapter 9.

Again, I highly recommend it.

Okay, thanks, Bratch!   I think I'll get it.

(I'll also listen to his radio show, if it ever gets to my area.)
