A trial lawyer by trade, a Christian by heart--author Mark Lanier has trained in biblical languages and devoted his life to studying and living the Bible. Living daily with the demands of his career and the desire for a godly life, Lanier recognizes the importance and challenge of finding daily time to spend in God's Word. His study of the first five books of the Bible--the Torah, the Law--has brought Life to his life. In Torah for Living , Lanier shares a year's worth of devotionals--one for each day of the year. In each devotional, Lanier reflects on the biblical text, relates the text to the struggles facing faithful readers of the Bible, and concludes with a prayer for the day. --Gary Rendsburg, Blanche and Irving Laurie Professor of Jewish History, Rutgers University.
