Publisher's Description
The Man Who Met Moses is a work of biblical historical fiction infused with depth, psychology, and spiritual insight. Set a century after Moses vanished on Mount Nebo, the story follows Shemaiah, a descendant of Hebrew slaves and a scribe, who senses that Moses is still alive. Driven by a yearning for the truth about the nature of God, he leaves everything behind to embark on a mythic journey through desert lands, dreamscapes, and archetypal realms—seeking not just a prophet, but the divine voice within. As Shemaiah traverses sacred geography and the vast interior landscape of the soul, his path reveals profound truths about human nature, compassion, and the archetypal forces shaping history. Seamlessly blending ancient narrative with modern psychological insight, the novel reframes religious mythology through a contemporary, universal lens rooted in spiritual authenticity.

“In this gem of a novel, Judith Merenfeld-Moscu uses what Carl Jung and the alchemists called ‘true imagination’ to forge a diamond-like narrative of a transformative journey to the self. The novel is a marvelous illustration of active imagination at its most authentic and shows brilliantly its revelatory potential. I’m sure that reading it deeply can be transformative and of the greatest spiritual benefit. I recommend this novel as a profound lesson in individuation.”
“In The Man Who Met Moses, Judith Merenfeld-Moscu brings ancient history to life with clarity, warmth, and spiritual depth. This novel reads like a journey—one that invites reflection, curiosity, and a renewed sense of wonder. It is both deeply human and beautifully transcendent, offering timeless wisdom in a story that is impossible to put down.”
