In this second instalment of short stories based on biblical events, we look into some of the lesser known heroes of the Bible. People who are mentioned in passing, who take up only a page or two in the scriptures, but nevertheless play a role in teaching us lessons, need to be acknowledged. Their contribution may pale in comparison to some of the better known heroes like David and Moses, but it's all of those people who shaped what we are today. In particular this book aims at demonstrating the courage it took to go against the flow during these times. Again using the context of biblical time, this is a follow-up to the first book Facing the Elements, that saw the scriptures not only as stories but as real events. The book is separated into four themes: men, women, small groups and large groups or clans. In the author's usual habit, the twelve stories are followed by a bonus which makes for the baker's dozen. This time a song attributable to Nehemiah is the subject.
