Jill Eileen Smith
This is Jill's latest biblical novel. In it she tells Joseph's story, and contrasts it with that of his brother Judah.
Joseph is the pampered favourite of the patriarch Jacob. His older brothers, deeply resentful of his status in the family, take advantage of the chance to get rid of him, selling him to slave traders and deceiving their father about his fate.
Decades later, the brothers will come face-to-face, and this time Joseph has the upper hand. Will forgiveness or vengeance win the day?
This book is a fresh take on a very familiar Bible story.
