About this listen

Mankind is "the symbol-using animal," American philosopher Charles Peirce famously wrote, It's vital-literally-that we grasp our relation to symbols. God himself thinks in symbols. Since we are made in God's image, everything we think and do is symbolic as well. Moses failed to follow God's symbolism, and was harshly punished, forbidden to enter the Promised Land. Keeping or breaking symbolism will decide how each of us fares on Judgment Day. Understand symbolism or suffer the consequences.

Critic Reviews

Winner of the Pacific Book Award for Best Spirituality

Finalist of the Pacific Award for Best Philosophy

"Through and though-provoking, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in the Bible, its history, and its society-shaping role." -US Review of Books

"Discussing the symbolic illustration in a Christian marriage between one man and woman versus homosexuality, divorce, polygamy, and polyandry, [Vancelette dives] deeper into what it means to be a man and a woman in the eyes of God." -San Francisco Book Review
