A little-known Biblical tale, an ancient Irish legend – Tephi’s story deserves to be told!
While King Nebuchadnezzar’s army ravages Jerusalem, Princess Tephi, the teenage daughter of King Zedekiah, cowers in her chambers, hoping for a swift and merciful death. However, rescue comes from the most unlikely hero – the aged prophet Jeremiah.
The prophet absconds with Tephi to hidden catacombs under the Temple where a clutch of priceless treasures hides, including the legendary Ark of the Covenant. After outlasting the siege, Jeremiah whisks Tephi on an extraordinary adventure, spanning three continents, and ending up in the distant Isles of Tarshish, specifically the Emerald Isle of Ériu.
Bravery is paramount in this mythical land as Tephi’s destiny unfolds; including a queenly anointing, her husband being selected by arrow, and a battle history will immortalize. Through it all Tephi clings to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as she faces numerous iterations of the false god Ba’al and his warmongering worshipers.
