Sarah and after : the matriarchs
"A small band of tribesman were making the long journey across the Egyptian desert with their asses, tents, baskets of food and grain. Grouched in one of the baskets was a young woman, a girl so beautiful that her husband had ordered her to be kept hidden from the lecherous eyes of roaming Egyptians who might want to murder the men of the caravan in order to carry her off. The girl was Sarah. As described in the bible, Sarah was the wife of Abraham, a nomadic tribesman who foresaw he was destined to be the founder of a great nation, 'the chosen people of God."--Book jacket
