The Seekers

In the first chapter called "From seer to prophet: Moses' test of obedience" the future has always been tried to be predicted since ancient times seers claimed to predict the future, determinating people's behavior.

Afterwards Moses and other prophets replaced the seers by changing the concept of understanding the future throught "God words". Prophets were called God speakers.

Religion became what ruled the world. The commandments say what to do and not to do. The last five commandments cast in the relative (prohibiting murder, adultery, theft, false testifying and coveting of neighbors' goods) emphasize the freedom of the hearer to choose the way of right belief and so avoid sin.

The Economics

It is a social science. It's about the behavior and realtionshops between human beings in the administration of scarce resources.
