Publisher's summary

A Home for Hava is inspired by the biblical story in the book of Judges about Jephthah's vow to God.

Thousands of years ago, Israel was ruled by judges during a turbulent time when the people of Israel strayed from God into idolatry and other beliefs. Jephthah was one of Israel's judges...and one of God's faithful.

Jephthah, a protector of local villages, makes a vow to the Lord before a battle with the Ammonites: If he and his warriors emerge triumphant, he will make a burnt offering of the first thing he sees when he returns home. Jephthah initially expects that the sacrifice will be livestock, but when he returns from battle his beautiful, devout daughter, Hava, is the first to greet him. And now the heartbroken man tells his daughter that she must die.

Hava agrees but begs for a two-month delay of her sacrifice, during which time she will weep in the mountains. As the day approaches, will Jephthah's precious daughter, Hava, be sacrificed to ensure that he stays true to his promise to God?

A Home for Hava is an inspired story about faith and honor by acclaimed Christian author Summer Lee.
