Harrelson writes in his preface: “What stake do human beings today have in the contents of these ancient words? What help do they offer as we struggle to find our way in an increasingly complex and bewildering moral universe? Are they of any real help? The premise of this book is that the Ten Commandments are still an inadequately mined treasure, a storehouse of wonderfully helpful insight and guidance for the entire population of earth.”
