Description

In No Other Gods, author Ana Levy-Lyons reintroduces the Ten Commandments as practices for living with spiritual integrity. Revealed here from the original Hebrew and applied to life today are insights you've never read before on the Ten Commandments. Even those who don't like being "commanded" will embrace their true, astounding meaning. These ancient words provide powerful underpinnings for social justice and equality-the very foundation of society. They address global corporate power, consumerism, personal responsibility for making change happen, work-life balance, our obligation to renounce violence against humans and our ecosystems, the real costs (in fair wages and the planet's resources) for what we buy, our charge to speak and demand truth in every sphere from home to government, and more. A resource for everyone, whether spiritual-but-not-religious or deeply observant, the Ten Commandments meaningfully integrate spirituality and politics-personal and global. This 3,000-year-old code still resounds with progressive firepower. Book jacket.
