The Ten Commandments

We loved having Rabbi Adam Wright return as guest lecturer and teach us about the Ten Commandments. I asked him to spend extra time on the fourth commandment, since our two faiths are almost unique in a commitment to Sabbath observance. He had some fascinating insights. He taught us the word, shamar, which means to follow closely, or to guard, so Jews speak of "guarding the Sabbath." It's a meaning-full phrase, isn't it. We presented the Rabbi with his own replica of the 1830 version of the Book of Mormon, and he was pretty excited about it! Here is the recording of that session.
