How can the struggles of a great biblical figure help you
to improve your life today?
To help us cope with the burdens of our own “Egypts,” author Levi Meier brings to life the struggles, failures, and triumphs that reveal the human side of Moses, a central figure in Jewish, Christian and Islamic traditions. Engaging, empowering and insightful, Moses—The Prince, the Prophet shows how personal struggle and perseverance create a foundation for liberation and change while teaching us about ourselves—our role in life, our struggles and our relationship with God.
More than a biography, Moses—The Prince, the Prophet is a personal guide to growth for each of us. It explores a life intertwined with the story of a people—from the Israelite Exodus from Egypt and the birth of a new nation, to the Divine revelation at Mount Sinai.
Author Levi Meier—chaplain, clinical psychologist, and rabbi—knows how people struggle for healing and meaning in their lives. He brings the drama of these events from biblical history into today to show the very human side of Moses—a person who, like ourselves, experienced self-doubt, fear, suffering, failure and success.
Through examining Moses’s experiences and the common threads they share with ours, we are taught lessons for our lives. Drawing on the stories in the Book of Exodus, midrash (finding contemporary meaning from ancient Jewish texts), the teachings of Jewish mystics, modern texts and psychotherapy, Meier offers new ways to create our own path to self-knowledge, self-fulfillment and self-actualization—and face life’s difficulties head-on.
“A fascinating interweaving of soul and psyche through an analysis of Exodus. A must-read.”
Dr. Laura Schlessinger, internationally syndicated radio talk show host; author of The Ten Commandments
“Helps us solve our problems by connecting us to an ancient and still compelling wisdom. . . . Read this book—it enlarges the horizons of hope.”
Professor Jonathan Sacks, Chief Rabbi, The United Hebrew Congregations of the Commonwealth
“Illuminating and thought-provoking.”
Kirk Douglas
“Levi Meier is a master teacher and his writings are fresh, compelling, and provocative.”
Faye & Jonathan Kellerman, authors
“Moses would be delighted to know that he has been brought so powerfully to life. ... We are in our own wilderness and we need a spiritual compass as did the Israelites. A valuable contribution.”
Larry Dossey, M.D., author of Be Careful What You Pray For; Prayer Is Good Medicine; and Healing Words; executive editor of Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine
