3,200 years ago, at the dawn of the Bronze Age, a dramatic event was witnessed by thousands. As a nation camped around a mountain in the Sinai desert, suddenly a fury of flames and thunder descended onto Sinai’s peak. From a thick cloud, a sound like that of a trumpet blew. The witnesses below trembled. A figure cloaked in fire descended onto the mountain and stood on pavement like sapphire. The ground shuddered. A voice rumbled from the summit and told the nation’s leader to climb to the peak. And in that place, God dictated, word for word, to Moses the Torah and gave him the tablets holding the Ten Commandments, hewed in stone. Only the Torah, the first five Books, claim God as the author.
