So which is it? Nowhere does that question press harder than the Ten Commandments, and it turns out J…
In every temple in the ancient world, the innermost room held a statue of the god. Egypt, Babylon, Canaan; walk far enough in, and you reach the god's shape. But at the center of Israel's worship, between the wings of the cherubim, there was nothing. No image. No figure. Open air. This reflection i…
