RIGHTFULLY MINE ORDERS

“WHY SHOULD THE NAME OF MY FATHER BE WIPED FROM ISRAEL

LIKE FOOTPRINTS IN A SANDSTORM BECAUSE HE BORE ONLY DAUGHTERS?”

The promised land—God’s precious gift to the Israelites.
Precious indeed, but for Rizpah and her sisters the promise seemed
empty. Only a male could claim a family’s inheritance of land, and
since Rizpah and her sisters had no brothers or husband...

After wandering in the plague-ridden desert for forty years the
Israelites are preparing to move on at last to the Promised Land. But
when Moses divides the new land among the men of Israel, it is Rizpah
(called Noah in Numbers 27) who has the courage to fight for her
family of sisters.

It was an unexpected blow to realize that the Promised Land was
being divided all right, but only between the men. Rizpah must stand
against an entire nation of men to earn for her and her sisters what
is rightfully theirs.

This is a women’s equal rights amendment straight out of ancient
history, and handed down straight from the throne of God. How much
more do we need to understand the great worth of women, and our worth
to God throughout history, today and evermore.

Justice

_Rightfully Mine: God’s Equal Rights Amendment_ is about justice.
The subplot involves a love triangle, greed and murder, and family
ties that bind, but that subplot is the parallel to this infant nation
finding itself before they can emerge to earn what is rightfully
theirs. How could the nation inherit the Promised Land when they
denied some of their own (women) their rights to the Promised Land?

Love

The love triangle is intricate to _Rightfully Mine_’s theme; a
parallel on so many levels to the path of Rizpahs life and the life of
every believer. Like all of us, our heroin, Rizpah, had a public
calling, but when she fulfilled it, she mistakenly believed her
calling was completed, and she could go on with life as she had it
planned.

God’s Plans

But God had different plans. He knew, though she indeed had
fulfilled the great public purpose she was born to, she hadnt yet been
circumcised personally, which was the basic physical (personal)
requirement for the nation of Israel (all Gods children).

The male word _circumcision_ is purposely used for this personal
(spiritual) requirement, not because Rizpah did a mans job in the
council, but to speak to the calling of each child of God to be cut
off from that which is not right for _us_.

Love vs. Justice vs. God’s Plans: Which Will Win?

Rizpah’s entire life was grounded in what is justice and what is
love. She thought she knew about these better than most. She thought
they all meant the same thing. When these principals seemed to be in
opposition, which would win?

Rave Reviews for Rightfully Mine

“Seamlessly woven into the plot is a love story of
Rhett-Scarlett-Ashley proportions. Hanniel, Rizpah’s cousin, spends
his life in love with her, but she loves Caleb–or is it hero
worship, or the desires of a young, foolish heart carried into
adulthood?

“Along with the rich plot and subplot of the novel, Aggie exhibits
a talent for placing the reader in the heart of the bedouin camps, in
the very tents and activities of the characters she brings to life,
with the economy of words that is the hallmark of a masterful writer.
Her characters are full-bodied; her action scenes are tense and
exciting; her love scenes are both pure and seductive. I’d recommend
this novel to anyone who wanted to step away from the ordinary.”

ROMANCE MAGAZINE, AND HAS REVIEWS FEATURED ON SUCH SITES AS JERRY
JENKINS, RIVEN.

“Her portrayal of a humanity struggling between safety and destiny
is touching, palpable, and memorable. This is easily one of the best
biblical novels I’ve ever read.

_“Villanueva’s careful research—aided by a visit to
Israel—is evident on every page of this fast read. With a light
hand, she sketches the history of a people that, in our modern age,
seem very foreign indeed. But Villanueva never allows the intricacies
of historical detail and customs to obstruct the heart of her story:
the insistent, unrequited love of a man and the demanding, struggling
faith of a woman whose heart is torn between her lifelong passion for
the famed warrior Caleb and her need for the just treatment of herself
and her orphaned sisters._

“Villanueva follows no clichéd storyline. She presents an array
of plausible characters and includes an intimate look into the lives
of some of the most famous biblical heroes, never faltering from
uncomfortable historical facts.”

_K.M. WEILAND, AUTHOR OF A MAN CALLED OUTLAW, AND BEHOLD THE DAWN_

_"One of my favorite movies of all time is The Ten Commandments.
Rightfully Mine is now one of my favorite books.”_

Cindy Bauer, author of Chasing Memories ">

_"A carefully researched and inspiring story of someone who stands
up against the crowd and seeks God with their whole heart . . .
regardless of the cost."_
