520 _a"How can a Bible story be brand-new? Adam and Eve. Abraham and Sarah. Miriam and Moses. We think we know their stories, but the Bible doesn't tell us everything. What if we could see the full picture? Maybe we'd discover that; Adam and Eve are challenging the rules and growing up; Abraham and Sarah recklessly smash the idols in his father's workshop to prove a point; Miriam risks everything to watch over her baby brother, Moses. In this modern retelling of Bible stories, we discover that the iconic figures of the Bible were people just like us--filled with fear and joy, jealousy and passion, mischief and love. Informed by midrash, the ancient Jewish tradition of studying and filling in the gaps of Bible stories, and told with both fresh insights and deep respect for the traditional text, these stories illuminate and bring us new understandings of our biblical ancestors and ourselves." --
