In the inspirational tradition of the bestseller The Red Tent, a powerful retelling of the stories of Old Testament matriarchs

“In Ochs’s hands, each story becomes a wellspring of insights that can empower us to think and act differently in our own lives.”
―Jewish Woman

“Ardently and unstoppably upbeat”
―Library Journal

In this vivid collection, Judaic scholar Vanessa Ochs brings the legends of the biblical matriarchs to new life.

From Eve’s rebellious taste of wisdom to the righteous anger of Job’s wife, each woman’s story is retold in imaginative prose and accompanied by meaningful rituals.
