The intimate conflicts of Israel's most famous couple—in their own words.

Goddess of Nazareth takes the attitudes and conventions of contemporary society (sleepwear parties, sports, sex, coffee, in-laws, friends, pets, favorite restaurants) and place them in the Biblical setting. The birth of Jesus is only a sidebar to this sometimes funny, sometimes heartbreaking clash between flesh and spirit, lust and love, religious restraint and joie de vivre.
