Lauren Jacobs Brings a Forgotten Female Religious Leader to Life in “Shelamzion: Queen of Israel”
In this Under the Covers episode, we visit with Lauren Jacobs, author of “Shelamzion: Queen of Israel,” a work of historical fiction that shines a light on a much-forgotten queen of Israel.
Professor Kenneth Atkinson, author and biblical scholar, says that “Lauren Jacobs has written an exciting novel that captures the spirit of the historical Queen Shelamzion and her tumultuous world. It accurately reconstructs the details of her life and times through an engaging narrative that never fails to entertain, and awe the reader.”
Author Lauren Jacobs says that one of the purposes of this book is to “display the value of female leadership, increase female representation in the Ancient Near East and add value to the theological discussion of female leadership.”
