This is truly a fascinating fictitional account that appears to honestly portray the events of our slavery in Egyptian bondage. The Midrashim, Gemoroh (Talmud) and chazal”l are true to life.
The story of Bat-ya/Daughter of Hashem brought deep emotions within my heart.
I have read somewhear that Bat=ya “resides” in the “heichal noshim tzidkonim” in the highest spheres of Gan Eden. Furthermore, she enters the heichal to shep nachas from seeing Moshe Rabbeinu learning Torah in Gan Eden.
Dear author, would you kindly tell us more about your background, BUT MOSTLY about your studies in Yeshivot, Rabbanim etc. I have read your stories and find them authentic and entertaining. As a mother, grandmother and a former teacher I am interested to know more about yourself. rsvp

An exciting story. I’ve got a grandson who loves this kind of Shrek like sci fi and it’s a great way to teach him midrash.

Wonderful website. I am trying to learn whatever I can about Torah and the writings that we hear in Temple each week. I was never taught any formal Judaism.
I read whatever I can and learn from sites like yours, and AISH.com
