Thomas Mann proves that Deuteronomy is more than a remnant of ancient history. It is a living document dealing with issues related to the modern-day reader, including justice and the vision of great society, individual responsibility for the importance of society, and the nature of loyalty to God and the world.

By studying these and other issues, readers will discover striking similarities between the Israeli world several thousand years ago and today. This absorbing and cutting-edge book will stimulate debate about the virtuoso recipes of a healthy society and its applicability to contemporary life and society.

The books in the Westminster Bible series help secularists in their study of the Bible as evidence of Christian faith and practice. The whole volume of the Bible explains its original historical context and explores its importance to the life of the believer today.

These books are ideal for individual study and Bible study groups and groups.
