Produktbeschreibung
Eva, the first woman, and Sarah, Rebekah, Leah, and Rachel, the four Matriarchs in the book of Genesis of the Jewish Torah and the Christian Old Testament: Who were they? How did they live, what did they feel and think, what motivated them to act each in their particular way? Actions that have been regarded as breaking G-d's commandment, as jealousy, as deceit, as sisterly rivalry. The patriarchal culture of the Bible concerns itself mainly with the male protagonists Adam, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and gives very little insight into the minds of their female companions. In order to understand these women and their contributions to humankind as a whole and the people of Israel in particular, the author has transplanted them into the 20th century and into environments that are accessible to descriptions of daily life. Disregarding continuity in time she has focused on the perceptions of the soul to explore their motivations and their following the Divine Plan by listening to the still small voice in their hearts.

Autorenporträt
