THE RECEIPTS

The robes are real.

The decrees are real.

The catastrophes are real.

So are the arguments.

This is history with the homework removed and the margins written in.

THE RESULT

Three thousand years.

Empires gone.

Temples gone.

Countries gone.

Jews still here.

Still arguing.

Still correcting the number from four hundred to four hundred and thirty.

Progress toward stopping: none.

HISTORY HAD WITNESSES

Now you can bother them personally.

Talk to Moses, Tamar, Pharaoh, Cyrus and the people who got stuck living inside the argument.

None. We found an error in the instructions.

REVIEWS FROM PEOPLE WHO WOULD PREFER WE STOP

READ BEFORE FOLLOWING THE ADVICE

A few pages should be enough to determine whether you want three thousand more years of this.

We asked God for water.

Reasonable.

Four hundred years of slavery. Desert. Two million dry mouths.

A well would have been fine.

We got the Red Sea.

Salt.

Enormous.

Undrinkable.

And not one of us could swim.

Then God split it.

This solved the swimming problem and none of the others.

Two million people walked through the biggest miracle in the history of anything, came out safely on the other side, looked back at the walls of water and said:

“Yes, but can we drink it?”

God had not underdelivered.

He had misunderstood the brief.

Every clause in Jewish law exists because somebody once asked for water and received a body of it the size of a country.

We have been specifying ever since.

Still.

Sparkling.

No ice.

Lemon on the side.

We didn’t need a sea.

We needed a well and a sandwich.

“I’ve never laughed this hard at a history book. Even worse, almost all of it is true.”
