Synopsis
USA Today bestseller Publishers Weekly bestseller Wall Street Journal bestseller Many people today think the Bible, the most influential book in world history, is not only outdated but irrelevant, irrational, and even immoral.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., USA Today bestseller Publishers Weekly bestseller Wall Street Journal bestseller Many people today think the Bible, the most influential book in world history, is not only outdated but irrelevant, irrational, and even immoral.

    If this item has “signs of wear”, I haven’t found them yet. It did not its original box, but it was packed BEAUTIFULLY. Each piece was stretch wrapped and packed with NEW packing paper in a NEW shipping box. The care taken is truly appreciated. Communication was excellent. Price negotiation was fair. The item is better than described and shipped promptly. This is a top notch seller. I would not hesitate to buy again

I have contacted seller prior to sale with the question and received an immediate, courteous and satisfactory reply. I would recommend this seller for all of the above reasons and great price of the books I've received.

    Prager’s teaching is reason based and he means for it to make rational sense.

    Dennis Prager has taught the first five books of the Bible for over forty years! His commentary is so open and inspirational as he explains verse by verse what was written thousands of years ago. It’s as though he has met God and understands him just enough to introduce you to his thoughts and plans for mankind. It’s about the words of God, not the thoughts of man.

    Certainly worth the time

    Yes, it is a "good read." I like the way the author puts the information together, so that it is easily understood. I don't feel like I need a degree of some sort to read and absorb the commentary. I look forward to his future books on the Torah/Bible.

    A Very Informative Book!

    I am not an avid reader, but I find The Rational Bible to be a very easy read and an interesting and informative book. I have read parts of the Bible and found it somewhat difficult to follow or understand. This book helps clear that up. It doesn't try to tell you what the verses mean, but gives you interpretations that you may take literal or form your own. I like that it gives sources that you can check as well. Very well thought out and written. Thank you.

    A must-read for everyone who wants to understand the Bible better

    This is one of the most profound and thought-provoking discussions of the Bible that I have ever read. It really makes the Bible more understandable and gives me insight into the mindset of the people who lived back then. I have also read Prager's book on Exodus and highly recommend it as well. This is one of the 10 best books I have ever read in my life!
