The book begins with the discovery of nineteen sealed urns in a small cave located in southern Lebanon. The urns contained papyrus scrolls written in ancient Greek that told of a Jewish family that moved from Judea and settled in Beth-Gebar. The author was Silvanus, and he wrote about his family’s history while living in Beth-Gebar. The time frame covers most of the first century. As the stories progress through the scrolls, the focus becomes more and more on Silvanus’s younger sister, Rachael, who grows from being an unkempt, fearless little girl to becoming the wealthiest and powerful woman in Greece, impacting both Greek and Roman economies.
