Living by the Book

October 1, 2007 - 8:30 AM by

What if you spent an entire year following all the rules in the Bible? Some people strive towards that goal and live it on a regular basis. But what about the more secular among us (ahem) who don’t?

A.J. Jacobs, author of the to-be-released in October “The Year of Living Biblically” (Simon & Schuster), spent a year trying to follow Biblical rules. He grew a beard and lived among Hassidic Jews, Amish and Jehovah’s Witnesses. But he says a major stumbling block was not being able to get over that “thou shalt not covet” thing.

Read an interview w/Jacobs here.

Whoa. I sure don’t covet that beard wild hairdo thing he’s got going on.
