Rich Man Korach (eBook)

The main heroes of the narrative are: Korach, Pharaoh's fabulously wealthy accountant; Moses, the ruler over the Jewish people; Aharon, the high priest. The Jews, fleeing Egyptian slavery to the Promised Land, sinned twice, and God punished them severely with forty years stay in the desert. Korach took advantage of the people's discontent, rebelled and seized authority, removing Moses and Aharon. God dealt with the impostor and his friends and returned to the people their former leaders. Moses and Aharon remained faithful to God to the end and proved to be trustworthy mentors to the ancient Israelites. Female characters play an important role in the story.
