The Authors

Written in Jerusalem

Dave Mason

Dave defines his mission as: Learn, Grow, Teach. Besides being an author, Dave is a rabbi, an entrepreneur, and a business strategist. His journeys have taken him through over twenty countries, and into jobs as varied as environmental litigator for the Natural Resources Defense Council and CEO of an e-commerce network.

Dave loves teaching through stories. In addition to The Age of Prophecy series, his novels include The Size of Your Dreams, which teaches tools for reaching your goals, and The Cash Machine, which teaches hundreds of financial lessons inside a love story. The rest of his work lives at davemason.co.

Dave lives with his family in the eclectic Nachlaot neighborhood of Jerusalem.

Mike Feuer

Mike shies away from the title co-author, preferring creative co-conspirator instead. He and Dave have lived bizarrely parallel lives: born just four days apart, they were classmates at Colorado College, where they vaguely remember one another. After college, both made their way to Israel and threw themselves into the study of traditional Jewish texts. They finally met almost fifteen years after first starting school together, when they became two of the founders of a new institution in Jerusalem, Sulam Yaakov, where they each did their rabbinic training.

Dave began The Age of Prophecy almost six years before the publication of The Lamp of Darkness. Several years into the work, he asked Mike to come on as a research assistant, drawing on Mike’s vast knowledge of subjects ranging from geology to ancient history to textual analysis. When Mike’s work greatly exceeded Dave’s expectations, Dave bumped him up to co-author.
