"Two brothers once lived in the land of Israel." Eben is wealthy but selfish; Ezra, poor but generous. When patriarchs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob return to earth, in disguise, for Sukkot, the harvest festival, they visit the brothers and reward each one according to his welcome. The gracefully told tale is illustrated with glowing acrylics.
