They were creatures that always looked up to behold the sky. In the early days they gazed at the heavens, read the field for symbols, found a firmament of meaning. They saw the floodgates open to release their god’s wrath, saw the rainbow as a sign of their god’s promise, saw a moving cloud as a sign of their god’s will. They saw the stars, billions of them, each one lit for one of Abraham’s seed forever. They saw one star lit over a small town in Palestine. They looked to the sky and found their god.
