Melissa has been writing and delivering Torah monologues since 2002, imagining what the characters in the Torah might think and feel about their lives, their families, and their god. Her passion for Torah led her to learn biblical Hebrew and train as a maggid. Melissa publishs a weekly blog on the Torah portion (www.mtorah.com), and she is now writing a book on the moral psychology of the characters in Genesis.
