description: Josephs family just started a war theyre going to lose. Two days ago his half-sister Dinah was kidnapped and raped by the prince of the city of Shechem. Now Joseph is trapped between his brothers clamoring for an attack on the walled fortress and his father who knows they cant win. As the badly bullied youngest brother Joseph would rather not die for a lost cause. However he may not have much say. When two of his brothers launch a vicious raid on the city to rescue Dinah Josephs world is plunged into chaos. As the aftershocks of the battle tear through their camp news of the treacherous attack spreads. Shechem is an influential city and soon Josephs family find themselves surrounded by enemies on every side. In desperation they flee south to Bethel risking the dangerous journey to reach a place where Josephs father Jacob believes that God Himself will come to their aid. Except theres a reason they havent been to Bethel before. Josephs father has his own secrets a promise made to God before Joseph was even born one that could cost far more than theyre willing to give. But they may not have a choice because as the smoke from the ruins of Shechem drifts skywards God Himself is looking down on them. Watching and waiting. And He wont wait forever. This is an adaptation of the story of Genesis 34 from the Bible.
