Summary: This short, accessible, but theologically substantive volume unfolds the significance of the Ten Commandments for the Christian life. Gilbert Meilaender, one of today's leading Christian ethicists, places the commandments in the larger context of the biblical history of redemption and invites readers to wrestle with how human loves should relate to the first commandment: to love God above all else. As he approaches the Decalogue from this perspective, Meilaender helps Christians learn what it means to say, "Thy will be done." "A leading Christian ethicist places the Ten Commandments in the larger and richer context of the biblical history of redemption and invites readers to wrestle with how human loves should relate to the first commandment: to love God above all else"-- Provided by publisher. https://www.amazon.com/Thy-Will-Done-Commandments-Christian/dp/1540961966/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=9781540961969&qid=1590690263&sr=8-1
