À propos de ce contenu audio
A speculative backstory for two of the best-known figures in Western literature: Mary and Joseph.
Miriam is the daughter of Eli, the richest man in Palestine. She's rebellious, independent, and spiritually precocious. She is of an age to marry, but reluctant to accept a subservient role. She rejects "suitable candidates" proposed by her father and loses her heart to Yusuf. Yusuf is a lowly craftsman laboring on an addition to her father's estate.
Social obstacles appear insurmountable. Prophecies of Isaiah, conflicting cosmologies, political turmoil, rare astrological phenomena, and the curse of Jeconiah compound the young lovers' predicaments.
Not a "religious" audiobook or a Bible story. The Rabbi's Gift gathers shards of Roman history, Jewish mysticism, and Babylonian astrology to bring new depth to traditional characters in this retelling of an ancient tale.
