Master at mending copper. Failure at mending family.
Reuel's family have been traveling coppersmiths for generations, but it's not enough. His Israelite customers don't respect any Midianite, and his father only takes pride in what his older brother does. When Israel's power wanes and Midianite raids shift who's on top, all that could change. Has the time come when a second son can outshine the eldest?
Jael married Reuel with dreams of a home filled with love and respect, but her marriage has become as dry as the drought-plagued land they live in.
Reuel rejected all the gods, and Jael followed his lead. But is what she has all she'll ever have? Why does her sister, Zura, find such hope in the God of Israel, even though she remains blind?
All are broken, but can they, like bronze, be recast?
The books in the Light of Nations series are all standalone novels, each centered on a different people group that encountered Israel. You can start with any book—no need to read them in order.
Set in the time of the book of Judges.
For lovers of Connilyn Cosette, Tessa Afshar, and Lynn Austin.
