Moon of Israel is a historical novel written by H. Rider Haggard, first published in 1918. The story is set in ancient Egypt during the time of the Exodus and follows the journey of a young Egyptian slave girl named Merapi. She falls in love with a Hebrew prince named Ana, and together they witness the plagues that strike Egypt and the eventual exodus of the Hebrews from the land.The novel is a blend of historical fiction and romance, with Haggard's signature adventure and action elements. The story is narrated by Ana's cousin, a scribe named Ana, who provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the Exodus. The novel also explores the themes of love, loyalty, and faith, as Merapi and Ana struggle to overcome the cultural and religious differences that separate them.Haggard's vivid descriptions of ancient Egypt and his attention to historical detail make Moon of Israel an engaging and informative read. The novel has been adapted into several films, including the 1924 silent film of the same name. Overall, Moon of Israel is a classic work of historical fiction that offers a unique perspective on one of the most significant events in human history.Life! Blood! Strength! echoed everyone in the great hall, falling to their knees and bending their foreheads to the ground. Even the Prince and the aged Bakenkhonsu prostrated themselves thus as though before the presence of a god. And, indeed, Pharaoh Meneptah, passing through the patch of sunlight at the head of the hall, wearing the double crown upon his head.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
