There is this alchemy in many of the stories and parables. This alchemy involves the transformation of the ordinary into evidence and witness to the extraordinary. Jesus draws so many of his stories from familiar, everyday experience. He speaks of mustard seeds, poor widows, a lost coin, seeds planted and a wayward son returning home. This is to mention only a few. These ordinary experiences gesture well beyond themselves to wider horizons of human possibilities and expanded purpose.

For many years, I’ve written on Jewish texts and spiritual practice. Creating a dialogue between ancient sources and contemporary life has been deeply important to me. But during the pandemic, I found myself writing a fantasy novel. I was poking around looking at old files on my computer and came to a piece of a story — just a beginning, really — that I liked. The story had four women as its main characters: a warrior librarian, a mystic who could speak to trees and books, an apothecary and a former concubine with magical skills, all living in an enchanted and dangerous archipelago.

I’m a rabbi who wrote a fantasy novel. I couldn’t have done it without inspiration from our sacred past.

During my childhood, when my family visited relatives “across the river,” in Bayou Plaquemine, Bayou Goula, Caddo, the Pointe, and White Castle, my siblings and I would sometimes race up and down the levees, some distance away from the cows grazing there. At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.

Stacking blocks can go one of two ways. Stacking blocks when we are young, immature and unwise is haphazard, chaotic and prone to toppling over. Stacking blocks when we are older, mature and wise is planned, systematic and stable. As we grow up, we grow wise in the ways of stacking blocks so they will not topple over but remain standing.

1 Corinthians 2:6-16 The Spirit of God makes us wise in what God has freely given us through Christ crucified!
