Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The complete story of the man Moses, history's premier prophet, lawgiver and religious heroic figure, cannot be told without and understanding of the women in his life. The Bible tells us that Moses was born to Yocheved, daughter of Levi, third son of the Hebrew patriarch Jacob. He was watched over by his sister, Miriam, drawn from the Nile waters by Batya, daughter of the Egyptian Pharaoh, raised as Egyptian royalty, and married to Zipporah, daughter of the high priest of Midian." "But there is more depth to these women's lives than what appears in the spare biblical text, and it is the Jewish biblical commentaries who unveil these layered nuances. This book draws upon these sources and recounts how the Hebrew midwives resisted carnal intimidation by the Egyptian Pharaoh; what occurred between Moses, Zipporah, and the angel of death that night in the desert inn; why Moses abandoned Zipporah; how Miriam championed her sister-in-law, Zipporah, and was punished for it; and the identity of Moses' mysterious Kushite Woman." "Moses' Women weaves these biblical narratives and the commentaries into a chronicle of the women who reared Moses, bore his children, advised him, and intervened to save him time and again, when his very life was trembling in the balance."--BOOK JACKET.
