How many “Bible Stories” do you know from Tanakh (the Pentateuch, or Five Books of Moses) beyond those found in Bereshit (Genesis) and Shemot (Exodus)? Explore how Moses, Miriam, and Aaron change and develop after leading the Israelites out of Egypt and encounter a whole new cast of characters in Vayikrah (Leviticus) and Bamidbar (Numbers) through a weekly series on the human stories within these chapters — and how modern psychology can deepen our understanding of the behaviors, reactions, and dialogue exhibited therein.

The Hebrew Teacher
By Maya Aral
Translated by Jessica Cohen
Three Israeli women, their lives altered by immigration to the United States, seek to overcome crises. Ilana is a veteran Hebrew instructor at a Midwestern college who has built her life around her career. When a young Hebrew literature professor joins the faculty, she finds his post-Zionist politics pose a threat to her life’s work. Miriam, whose son left Israel to make his fortune in Silicon Valley, pays an unwanted visit to meet her new grandson and discovers cracks in the family’s perfect façade. Efrat, another Israeli in California, is determined to help her daughter navigate the challenges of middle school, and crosses forbidden lines when she follows her into the minefield of social media. In these three stirring novellas—comedies of manners with an ambitious blend of irony and sensitivity—celebrated Israeli author Maya Arad probes the demise of idealism and the generation gap that her heroines must confront.
