Have you ever wondered what the Old Testament - especially the Old Testament law - has to do with your Christian life? You are not alone. Some Christian leaders believe we should cast off the Old Testament now that we have the New. Carmen Joy Imes disagrees. In this warm, accessible volume, Imes takes listeners back to Sinai, the ancient mountain where Israel met their God, and explains the meaning of events there. She argues that we've misunderstood the command about "taking the Lord's name in vain." Instead, Imes says that this command is about "bearing God's name."

Wonderful book on common miss-understood scripture.
Reviewed: 10-23-20
Wonderfully, clearly explained biblical concepts I thought I understood. Mrs. Imes caused me to question my understanding of biblical scripture in a humble way, but then didn’t leave me hung out to dry. An excellent theological work that is easy on the ears, somewhat difficult for the soul, but none the less great.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 85
In this illuminating work, immigrant rights activist Aviva Chomsky shows how “illegality” and “undocumentedness” are concepts that were created to exclude and exploit. With a focus on US policy, she probes how people, especially Mexican and Central Americans, have been assigned this status—and to what ends.

Greatly informative. I found the history covered was both helpful and fair. At times it felt like facts were just being stated and I personally had difficulty intently listening. But overall, very good read. For the history alone it’s worth it. Definitely helped for and change some of my perspectives as a white male. I’d recommend it if you’re interested in immigration in general.
