Title: Red Tent
Review: This book was a wonderful interpretation of the Bible Story of Jacob and his family. Anita Diamant reads between the lines of some of the questionable bible stories, and fills in what others may have suspected. It is a modern interpretation of bibical stories, which I suspect is exactly the way that the bible was interpreted throughout the ages. We will never know the truth about what really happened, but this view seems much more likely than the one we are led to believe in the Bible. It's hard to believe that the Bible in its present form is the divine word of God, with all the horendous crimes that were justified in it. Anita tells it the way we would assume the story of Dinah must have happened in her affair with Shalem at Shechem.
