Seth is among the Hebrew slaves Moses has delivered from Egypt. They have arrived at Sinai and Moses has ascended the mountain, but he has been gone an extraordinarily long time.

The ex-slaves find themselves in a strange and demanding environment not knowing what has happened to their leader. This situation has led to their creating an idol, a god to lead them.

As a whole, the Hebrew nation acknowledges G-d, although they are not exactly obedient to him. A Tabernacle must be built to teach the people about G-d and to establish a system of worship. But Seth is an unbeliever and often feels he is in the company of a superstitious people. So ordinarily, he would have nothing to do with such a plan. But as a skilled weaver, when he is asked to create a special veil to guard G-d's Presence within the Tabernacle, he is left dismayed and conflicted.

The Weaver and the Veil takes us along on his journey toward a decision, highlights the meaning of the veil, and reveals its call on the lives of Seth's descendants.
