I’m guessing you’ve never thought of Batman while reading the book of Isaiah. Me neither. But in Isaiah’s Daughter, this courageous prophet must slip through a secret entrance in his personal wine cellar and enter a honeycomb of underground caves to rescue his friends. I thought he was a little super-hero-ish as I wrote some of his courageous decisions. His words. His deeds.
