Two Old Testament women want to be liked by their shared husband - also to bear children. From what lengths will each goes to get what they want most, and will either find her heart's desire? Hannah and her partner, Elkanah, share a profound and abiding love, for every single other, for their God, and for his tabernacle at Shiloh. Greatly disturbed by the corruption of the priests, they miss restoration and pray for a deliverer. But little or nothing changes as the years go. Years that also reveal Hannah to be barren. Pressured by his family to have another partner, Elkanah marries Peninnah, who quickly commences to endure children. Disgraced and taunted by her husband's new partner, Hannah changes again to prayers that seem doomed to visit unanswered. Do her devotion and kindness in the face of Peninnah's cruelty count up for nothing? How come God remain silent and indifferent to her pleas? Travel back again to the dusty avenues of Shiloh with an expert guide as Jill Eileen Smith brings alive a beloved history of hope, fortitude, and deliverance that presents that even the most cracked of connections can be restored.
