SEVEN DAYS TO THE SEA is the story of Miryam, sister of Moses, and
Tzipporah, wife of Moses, two extraordinary women whose lives were
bound to the same man--but not the same vision.
As a child, Miryam foretells the birth of a leader who will save their
people from oppression--a vision so vivid that she dedicates her life
to seeing it fulfilled in her brother, Moses. But after many years,
she wonders in the deepest confines of her heart if her sacrifices
mean anything, if her calling is real.
Tzipporah, a desert shepherdess who knows nothing of her husband's
divine purpose, suffers as he is torn from her by a strange god, a
foreign people, and an unforgiving sister. In her heart, she harbors
terrible secrets that haunt the love she shares with Moses and threaten
her tenuous peace with Miryam.
Together, as they struggle to overcome obstacles, Miryam and Tzipporah
weave a narrative that gives voice to the women of Exodus--their lives,
their community and ultimately their sisterhood.
