The whole subject of the interrelations of ancient Egypt and the Old Testament is very much larger than most people realize, be they lay or scholars. In this book Currid has thoughtfully selected a series of themes as a sampling from this very wide field; that some of these themes are not among the more obvious and well-worn subjects lends a freshness to his work. Currid early points out that what one may call the more reactionary (nineteenth-century) kind of Old Testament scholarship has preferred to understate the value of Egypt for biblical studies, while not a few others have shown themselves to be more conscious of ancient Egypt’s potential as a source of meaningful background to the Old Testament. It is worth recalling that, even merely geographically, Egypt was far closer to the Hebrews and later Israelites in Palestine than was far-distant Mesopotamia, several hundreds of miles to the east.

Peter Clifford, a young Catholic priest from Manchester, is transferred to the village of Ballykissangel, Ireland, and is taken by the dry-humored publican Assumpta Fitzgerald who has almost the exact opposite of his good nature and dislikes the organized church. He has to deal with occasional battles against his hateful superior, Father MacAnally, and the day-to-day problems of the people: Brian Quigley, whose constant search for money often leads him to immorality, his daughter Niamh and her lover straight-arrow garda Ambrose Egan, uptight and inquisitive shopkeeper Kathleen Hendley, gruff vet Siobhan Mehigan, cheery mechanic Padraig O’Kelly, comical schoolteacher Brendan Kearney, and elderly farmer Eamon Byrne. Later arrivals to the town include former monk Father Aidan O’Connell, pariah Sean Dillon and his daughter Emma, Eamon’s nephew Danny, female Garda Frankie Sullivan, Australian Father Vincent Sheahan, and horse-trainer Avril Burke.
