Ah yes, now you too can hear the voice of God uttering the Big 10.
A new iPad app lets you:
- Listen to the holy word of God on you iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad.
- Feel the strength and passion of the Bible´s most sacred laws. God spoke on Mount Sinai to share with the world these 10 rules to be followed for a holy and moral life.
- Touch the screen and listen. Each law appears in text and with sound as you touch the stone tablets on the screen.
I just had to hear what the “voice of God” sounds like coming from my iPad, so I dropped the $.99 on the app. Man oh man, does God sound like one scary dude.
Seriously, the voice on the app is MAD with a capitol “M”.
Mad in a “I thought things were going to be better after Sodom and Gamora, but boy was I wrong and now I’m ticked off again!” kind of way.
At least, however, the app got commandment #6 right and used “Thou Shalt Not Murder” instead of “Thou Shalt not kill”. (There is a different Hebrew word for “murder” than there is for “kill”.) This, as opposed to the monument of the commandments that made a brief appearance in front of a courthouse in Montgomery Alabama that didn’t even get the translation right.
So there should be a contest: who would do a “voice of God” the best? Morgan Freeman? James Earl Jones? George Takei? (Seriously!) Vote now for your fave!
Ummm…weird. Too each their own I guess!
