I am excited to announce the release of Judy Petsonk's new novel *Justice: Maccabees and Pharisees. * This newest novel is about how the fierce rivalry between Alexander Janneus, King of Judea, and Shimon ben Shetakh, the leader of the Pharisees, led to the transformation of Judaism from the Second Temple to the rabbis of today.
The story is woven through alternating perspectives of Shimon's ex-wife and Shimon's best friend. *Judy is available to Zoom with synagogues and Jewish communities*, and looks forward to hearing from you to talk about the extraordinary forgotten women of this period in Jewish history. You can email her directly, judypets...@optonline.net or check out her website: https://www.judypetsonk.com/ My very best, Danielle
