Publisher's summary

Rather than contain vague references to the words and actions of "the LORD" and "God" within the text, The First Seventy offers both seasoned readers/listeners of the Bible and those new to the text a spiritual explanation that can be discussed, debated, and incorporated into each individual's moment-to-moment life.

Weaving direct quotations from the Bible into a fluid narrative, The First Seventy: A Retelling Commentary, Creation - The Ten Commandments retells and explains the interconnected story that spans the first seventy chapters of the Bible.

Beginning with the story of creation, The First Seventy flows into a retelling explanation of the stories of Adam and Eve, Noah and his family, Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebekah, Jacob and his family, and the plight of Jacob's descendants, "the children of Israel," in and out of Egypt. This narrative concludes with Moses' deliverance of the Ten Commandments.

Contrary to other Bible commentaries and interpretations, The First Seventy considers the everlasting present moment, the unity between couples, and the presence of consciously aware individuals as all communicating as "God" throughout the first 70 chapters of the Bible. Furthermore, men, women, kings, priests, and others all speak and act as "the LORD" within this retelling of the Bible narrative as well.

Viewing the foundational theme of the Bible to be that all is interconnected and one, The First Seventy draws one's attention to the words and actions of highly conscious and enlightened individuals. As such, this narrative illuminates the power of love and can inspire all who read or hear the story to similarly live their lives in states of awareness and love on a moment-to-moment basis.

Kirkus Reviews has called B. Conscious' commentary "unique" and "completely set apart from any other on the market."

Insightful Commentary with a hopeful perspective

Our world is currently struggling with those of us who are egocentric, feel separate from others, and fear/hate those who are different than themselves. This commentary offered me hope. It showed how leading with love vs hate & fear is an age-old problem which can be solved with leaders who see us all as “interconnected and one” with our world and model that behavior.

Bible commentary helped me understand the evolution of the family that started with Adam & Eve and extended through Moses and the Ten Commandments. The author uses a unique lens to retell these stories which shows how, over centuries, the lords of the families who were consciously present to the world around them, led with love and a belief that we are all interconnected and one with our world were the ones who are historically the most esteemed—the basic theme of the book. This thought-provoking perspective helped me gain insight into the impact the Old Testament stories have on our current lives and how countries / regions of the Middle East evolved.

I particularly loved how the author explained the symbolism of seemingly preposterous old stories and the use of numbers to enhance meaning.

I also purchased the Kindle version of this book. The kindle version has a “family tree” which would have helped me follow along on the audiobook. I found this same family tree and great bible study questions on the authors website at www.Bibliture.com
