The Ten commandments for Jews, Christians, and others
In this book eminent Jewish and Christian scholars come together to illuminate the Ten Commandments. Roger Van Harn has arranged the volume so that writers from both traditions dialogue over each of the Ten Words. A Christian or a Jew writes an essay about one of the commandments, followed by a shorter response from a member of the other tradition
