Offering a host of classic and new essays surveying the scholarly ethical and biblical debate surrounding the Ten Commandments, William Brown organizes his volume into three parts: the history of interpretation, contemporary reflections on the Decalogue as a whole, and contemporary reflections on individual commandments. A useful addition to ethics and Old Testament/Hebrew Bible courses alike, Brown's The Ten Commandments will be a standard reference for all Decalogue research, as it facilitates a helpful balance between moral, theological, and biblical study. Contributors include Patrick D. Miller, Reginald Fuller, George Lindbeck, John P. Burgess, Nancy J. Duff, Paul E. Capetz, John Barton, Walter Brueggemann, Marvin L. Cheney, and more.
