Ancient Israel

While the Israelites struggle to occupy the Promised Land of God, Mahlah bat Zelophehad is orphaned and left to care for her four sisters. But daughters of the dead are unable to inherit land, and it will take a miracle for Mahlah to obtain the means to care for her sisters and uphold the vow she made to her dying mother. But, God is the protector of the orphan and the widow, and five orphaned daughters need his help. With God, anything is possible. Even changing man's tradition.

When the tribal elders make marriage a requirement for claiming her land, Milcah bat Zelophehad must find a betrothed straightaway. The only problem in finding a husband is that all her suitors were slain while conquering the land of Canaan. Men avoid her in order to stay alive. After praying to God to send her a bold suitor, a man from her father's clan plummets from a tree right on top of her. Is this God answering prayer or a foolish antic by Eli, the war-scarred brother from one of her clan's rival families?

In this new captivating history audiobook, you will discover the truth about the ancient Canaanites.

Because Israel has contributed so much to all of us, what was once just an Israelite culture has grown to become what is by and large an inherited world culture.

I believe that this scripture does hold true.

En el siglo 8 A.C., Samaria fue una de las más importantes provincias del Imperio Asirio. Conocida también como Israel, Samaria se rebeló repetidamente contra los jefes asirios, pero en el año 722, los asirios invadieron Samaria de una vez por todas, matando a innumerables personas y enviando al exilio forzoso a la mayoría de los sobrevivientes.
