The Roman commander could not believe what he heard.
In the heat of the battle between his soldiers and the Jewish rebels,
vigorous orders echoed from a woman's mouth.
Never imagined that women were capable of military command positions. The Roman beganto light
after her, but she disappeared in the darkness.
He told the emperor about the bloody attack by
the Bar Kochba warriors and the woman who commanded them.
"Who was that?" asked the emperor curiously.
"I couldn't find out, but I will do everything to
catch her."
She was agile as a demon and elusive as a snake, mastered
sword and dagger, rode horses like a seasoned knight,
hid in narrow caves, and fell in love with a man
who wanted to betray his people. The Romans were her enemies,
war, like revenge, flowed in her veins.
Her name was Rachel.
