Want your children to understand the Bible is history?</p><p>“Girls, get back!” Ezra shouted.</p><p>His face was pale, but his eyes kindled with indignation as he stood in front of the girls protectively. Ezra dropped the pitchers in the sand and his hand dashed to a dagger, concealed under his tunic. Jarah’s eyes grew wide. He could be killed for carrying a dagger!</p><p>Jarah was a slave in Egypt. It was a dangerous place to be.Her work was exhausting and her family was torn between the gods of the Egyptians and the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. And her brother… would his Ada be given in marriage to an Egyptian in the palace? Would they ever be free?</p><p>Adventure, love, and faith come together when Jarah and her family find themselves at the culmination of four hundred years of history.</p><p>Hope Auer has written a captivating tale of the Exodus seen through the eyes of a young slave girl! This perspective paints a fascinating tale, without adding or subtracting from the events of the Bible. </p><p>A required read aloud for Tapestry of Grace!</p><p>Used in Cornerstone Curriculum Project’s The Grand Story!</p> <p>Praise for A Cry from Egypt, the first book in the Promised Land series</p> <p>”As a historian, I particularly admired her portrayal of ancient Egypt in the time of Moses ... showing us the impact that the dramatic events of the Exodus must have had on ordinary families in Egypt. A Cry From Egypt is a great read ... " - Rob Shearer, author of The Greenleaf Guide to Old Testament History</p> <p>"I have read more stories from young authors than I can count, but Hope’s work is the first to make me think of JRR Tolkien, CS Lewis, and Frank Peretti when I read it." - Patsy Brekke, WritingFoundations.com</p>
