Ghosts of the Shephelah, Book 4: Rebekah
Ebook
Overview
Rebekah’s creativeness and perseverance in obtaining the blessing for Jacob was determined and powerful. This narrative creates a birth scene to equal her awesome entry into the world. Her adult life was far from normal, so an uncharacteristic childhood needed to set the stage for the many skills and abilities she possessed as an adult. The Bible states that Bethuel asked Rebekah to decide if she would become Isaac’s wife. That scene is explosive with her fiery red hair, green eyes, and an outburst uncharacteristic of women of the time. Over the twenty barren years that Rebekah waited to give birth, she became known as a midwife, healer, arbitrator, and counselor. The time to honor Rebekah as the servant of God has come. In this riveting story, you will get to know one of the most vibrant people in Scripture. No longer will a disobedient Isaac overshadow a faithful servant of the LORD. No longer will the frightened Jacob be seen as the deceiver. No longer will Rebekah be regarded as the obedient wife of Isaac but as the faithful servant of our LORD. Come, enjoy the exciting adventures of Rebekah.
“Dr.Stewart writes of Rebekah’s life with such extreme details
as to make the reader believe he was an eyewitness. From the flash
of lightning that announced her birth to her remarkable childhood
and through her multitalented life, Rebekah will surprise and
delight you with her skill and ability. . . . This is an
enlightening, enjoyable read of the life of a very remarkable
woman.”

James K. Stewart is a retired Presbyterian minister who has
always believed that the Old Testament has helped him to understand
the vital necessity of Christ Jesus. His many life experiences of
construction worker; scuba instructor; screenplay writer; and
writer/director of many theatrical productions; and, in his
retirement, golfer, have given him an in-depth appreciation that
people—all people, regardless of race, creed, or color—suffer and
enjoy the same human experiences.
