Synopsis

Is the Bible, the most influential book in world history, still relevant?Why do people dismiss it as being irrelevant, irrational, immoral, or all of these things?This explanation of the Book of Deuteronomy, the fifth book of the Bible, will demonstrate how it remains profoundly relevant—both to the great issues of our day and to each individual life.Do you doubt the existence of God because you think believing in God is irrational? This book will cause you to reexamine your doubts.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 Prager’s forty years of teaching 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 on a personal level.His goal: to change your mind—and, as a result, to change your life.

Initially, I was pretty excited to read this book, having appreciated some of the authors work and insights about various matters. As I continued reading, I ultimately found much of the material pedantic and disappointing in some respects. Many verses are either ignored or point to material found in......more

Goodreads review by Toni

Due to a lifelong Sunday School attendance that led to a daily Bible reading habit, I have read the first five books of the Bible many times over. I was so encouraged and delighted to read this series. Exodus and Genesis were wonderful, rational, educational, and encouraging. Deuteronomy is more of......more

Goodreads review by Bull

Prager is one of my very favorite radio talk-show hosts and a great all around commentator on current events whether spoken or written. However, this is the third of his Rational Bible commentaries I have read, and I can declare that they are very good and almost great. His style of commentary is dr......more

This is the third book in this series that I've read and I look forward to reading the next books in the series as well. That is my clearest recommendation.
