0:00.0	Do you ever get intimidated by reading the Bible, especially the Old Testament, where
0:10.2	God seems to be mad all the time, but if so, you have to listen to this show.
0:16.2	As part of his series on the Torah, Dennis Prager talks openly about why God does what
0:22.9	he does in the Old Testament.
0:25.8	Dennis has led a unique life. He has a daily radio show heard around America and around
0:30.6	the world. He's talked to millions of people. He's traveled to 130 countries and all 50
0:36.6	American states. He co-founded the online nonprofit Prager University and it's been viewed around
0:43.9	the world over a billion times. Today we're going to be talking about his brand new book, The

1:42.6	that word mean? Second law. This is a unique of the five books that constitute the basis of
1:49.5	the Old and New Testaments, called the Torah, and it is called that because it is Moses summarizing
1:58.4	everything that happened and the laws that God gave him. It has more laws than any other book
2:05.3	of the Bible. I think it's 240 something. I explain virtually every single one, and that's why it took
2:13.9	me so long to do Deuteronomy. Happily, I know biblical Hebrew very, very well, but that's not
2:20.9	enough. You obviously also need to believe you understand what the intentions are, and I do believe
