      Exploring humanity's role within the ecological system and the cosmos, the author delves into the search for God, suggesting that traditional religious beliefs may misplace the divine. He reconciles his Jewish identity with a rejection of anthropomorphic deities, advocating for an introspective understanding of God found in the small spaces within ourselves. The narrative emphasizes the importance of improving life quality for others, drawing connections to philosophical insights, particularly those of Baruch Spinoza, who anticipated modern perspectives on ontology centuries ago.

      Exploring the intersection of archaeology and biblical narratives, this fictional work delves into the story of the Exodus through the lens of Egyptology and genetic analysis of mummies near the Saqqara step pyramid. A team of English and Egyptian experts uncovers a mummy linked to the Cohanim tribe and potentially identifies Nefertiti, leading them to deduce Moses' identity and trace the Israelites' journey to the Promised Land. Their findings, which rationalize biblical events, spark conflict with extreme orthodox Jews, culminating in a battle on the Temple Mount that unites modern Israelites and Palestinian militias.
