The book includes six stories about the great characters of the Old Testament: King Herod, Queen Athaliah, the heroes Samson and Jephthah, and the mentors Moses, Aaron, and Abraham.
The interpretation of the acts of legendary persons is unconventional and differs from that accepted in historical and religious literature. This will attract the attention of history fans.
The author restores justice to women as historical figures who are in no way inferior to men in importance.
Readers will follow with interest the dialogues between characters discussing issues that are still relevant today.
The seriousness of the book does not preclude humor and irony.
The book's ideas are explained in more detail in the preface.
