Eli’s Coming
by Catherine Wells
Eli ben Aryeh, the founder and head of Time Sharing Adventures, is aiming for the year 10
BCE, but he misses by 75 years and ends up instead at the Romans siege of Masada where he
is mistaken for the prophet Elijah.
But they hadn’t existed at the time of Herod the Great. And they hadn’t captured
Masada until—what, 66 CE?
