A Cry From Egypt (The Promised Land Book 1)

Girls, get back! Ezra shouted.
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 flashed to a dagger, concealed under his tunic. Jarah s eyes grew wide. He could be killed for carrying a dagger!

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?

Adventure, excitement, love, and faith come together when Jarah and her family find themselves at the culmination of four hundred years of history.

Have you ever wondered what life was like in ancient Egypt? As an Israelite? And a slave? Want your children to understand the Bible is history?

I seriously have no words that can properly explain everything awesome about this book. - Dawn Winters from Guiding Light Homeschool

After reading the first chapter with the children, I snuck off to read more. I stayed up late to finish it. That s how drawn into Jarah s world I was. - Linda B at Homeschooling 6

One of the things I enjoyed most about this book as a parent was that Hope did an excellent job of focusing on her story, while staying true to the Biblical account of the plagues in Egypt. She allowed the Bible to speak for itself with the details she presented, neither adding nor subtracting from it. - Michele P from Family, Faith, and Fridays

Fast paced, Biblically and historically accurate, great fun! - Hal & Melanie Young, authors of Raising Real Men and Publishers, Great Waters Press

"Hope Auerâ€™s book, A Cry From Egypt, succeeds on multiple levels. There are shining examples of young people wrestling with doubts and trying to understand what God is doing. There are delightful examples of healthy families, under difficult circumstances, doing what families do â€“ caring for each other, teasing each other, loving each other. There is romance â€“ young people thinking about marriage and seeking wise counsel â€“ facing the eternal struggles of the course of true love. As a historian, I particularly admired her portrayal of ancient Egypt in the time of Moses. We pass too lightly through the list of the ten plagues. We know how the story ends. For those who lived it, it must have been terrifying. They had no idea what would come next, or how the story would end. Miss Auer has done an admirable job of 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 for young adults from upper middle to high school (and adults could profit by reading it too!)â€ â€“ Rob Shearer Publisher, Greenleaf Press
