Born into a time and place where a woman speaks her mind at her peril, and reared as a motherless child by a doting father, Rebekah grew up to be a stunning, headstrong beauty. She was chosen by God for a special destiny.
Rebekah leaves her father's house to marry Isaac, the studious young son of the Patriarch Abraham, only to find herself caught up in a series of painful rivalries, first between her husband and his brother Ishmael, and later between her sons Jacob and Esau. Her struggles to find her place in the family of Abraham are a true test of her faith, but through it all she finds her own relationship with God and does her best to serve His cause in the lives of those she loves.
In Rebekah, Orson Scott Card has created an astonishing personality, complex and intriguing, and her story will engage your heart as it captures your imagination.

I have read the bad reviews of this book, Rebekah, but it was one of my favorites. I felt like I really knew the character of Rebekah. I could not put it down and read it pretty quickly. I didn't feel that she was a weak woman character at all. I felt that the author being a man wrote about a woman accurately. I always keep my Bible close by to compare facts as much as I can, so I keep it straight in my mind what is actually written in the Scriptures and what is fictional.

The writing is flat and lacks insight.
Not only are the Women of Genesis series written in a mechanical wooden style, the facts are twisted,
and the stories are vulgarized.

I have been studing the women of the torah/bible for some time now. When I see a book about the women of the torah I am interested to see what the author has to say about this certain woman. I am very glad I bought this novel. Orson brings the story to life and he makes it interesting how it could of have been. I like his interpetion of the story in the bible. It's an excellent read and I enjoyed it very much. Keep up the good work.
