Overview

The Ten Commandments: Where Religion Got It Wrong by J.P. Longenecker God gave ten instructions. The institution built on those instructions has been violating every single one of them for two thousand years. Not occasionally. Not in isolated cases. Systematically. Deliberately. And always in God's name. This book takes each commandment and asks two questions. What did God actually say? And what did the institution do with it? The answers will make you uncomfortable. They are supposed to. You will find out what the name Jesus actually is - and what it is not. You will find out what a papal legate told soldiers to do to an entire city in God's name. You will find out what the word the King James translators rendered as kill actually means in Hebrew, and how the institution used the mistranslation both ways for seventeen centuries. You will find out what was happening in the back room of a famous televangelist's studio while a repairman waited outside. You will find out where your tithe actually goes. You will find out what the institution did when the most powerful child trafficker in American history was arrested - and what it did not do. The Ten Commandments have not changed. The institution's relationship to them is the problem this book names. Read it and see the gap for yourself.
