Shalom Safranim, Book your calenders for the *Queen of the Jews* Book Tour. Dates are below.
Queen Salome Alexandra ruled Judea (modern-day Israel) in the first century BCE. Vividly evoking scenes of ancient Jerusalem, Judy Petsonk's novel brings to life the queen's stormy relationship with her husband, and her love for the people who called her Shalom-Zion: the peace of Zion. "A GRIPPING, FUN READ... Judy Petsonk's sexy heroine, Queen Salome Alexandra, possesses the brains, hutzpah, and vision to save Israel not only from its many enemies but also from its own conflicted nature. A marvelous window into a neglected and little-known chapter of Jewish history." - Ellen Frankel, Former Editor in Chief of the Jewish Publication Society CALIFORNIA Tu 10/1 6 p.m. Sinai Temple sisterhood, LA W 10/2 10:15 a.m. ORT North Country Shores San Diego Th 10/8 7 p.m. Congregation Beth Israel, Carmel W 10/9 7:30 p.m. Congregation Beth Am, LA Th 10/10 10 a.m. Stephen Wise Temple, LA Sa/Shabbat 10/12 12:30 p.m. Valley Beth Shalom, Encino M 10/14 7 p.m. Alpert JCC, Long Beach W 10/17 7 p.m. Beth El, La Jolla Su 10/20 10 a.m. Temple Israel, Long Beach NEW YORK Th 10/24 1 p.m. Scarsdale JCC Sa/Shabbat 10/26, 1:15 p.m. Bet Am Shalom, White Plains FLORIDA Sa/Shabbat 11/2 luncheon after services Beth Am, Margate W 11/6 6:30 p.m. Temple Israel Sisterhood, Tallahassee F 11/8 10 a.m..
