The Bible picks up the story of Abraham when he is in his seventies, but there is so much more in Jewish historical documents like the Midrash, the writings of Flavius Josephus, and the Book of Jasher. This novella uses those resources to bring to life Abraham's birth, the signs in the sky that led King Nimrod to order his death as a baby, his youth with Noah and Shem, and how God spared Abraham from the Chaldean furnace. This is a novel view of how those and other events may have played out, while exploring the intimate relationship between Abraham and his family, as well as his faith and failures. The man whose life gave birth to three major religions.
