Book
By Way of the Wilderness
First published 2005
Moses is raised between Hebrew origins and Egyptian privilege before exile forces him to confront both identities. His return to Egypt, conflict with Pharaoh and leadership of the Israelites place his family relationships and personal doubts within the Exodus narrative.
The novel gives Aaron, Miriam and the emerging tribes substantial roles while interpreting deliverance through Christian faith. Its private conversations and precise chronology are fictional expansions of scripture and should not be treated as independently documented history.
