Sandra E. Rapoport I’m the author of BIBLICAL SEDUCTIONS, a Boston Globe Top-Ten Bestseller, and winner of the National Jewish Book Awards Finalist Prize. Biblical Seductions is my third book. My specialty is retelling the Bible’s stories through the lens of its female characters. Biblical Seductions, a book in six parts, retells the stories of seven biblical women who become heroines because they take outrageous risks when life places them in desperate situations. These women “do whatever it takes” to survive, overcoming hopelessness, poverty, childlessness, even rape. A theme of Biblical Seductions is that even an ordinary woman can triumph against the worst odds. You might shed some tears, but you will be cheering at the book’s end.
