An amazing book and an amazing series!!! This gives a whole new meaning to me about Jesus' life here on Earth and his teachings and how they affected people. An excellent book and I definitely recommend the series to everybody!!!
Jesus of Nazareth has been preaching in Judea for three years and has gathered many followers with his teachings and miracles. But he has also made enemies who fear his power and his influence and who have conspired to put an end to him by whatever means possible.
Mordechai ben Uzziel's life couldn't be any worse. His daughter, Miriam, has vanished from Rome, spirited away by none other than his old nemesis--Simeon ben David. Meanwhile, Mordechai's credibility with the Sanhedrin is jeopardized when the Council learns that his own daughter has become a disciple of this so-called Messiah.
Simeon ben David's life couldn't be any better. After struggling to follow the Savior and to testify of his knowledge that Jesus is the Son of God, Simeon has found peace and joy in following the Master. More than that, he has found love; he and Miriam will be betrothed before the feast of Hanukkah.
The family of David ben Joseph continues to follow Jesus, though the Savior's teachings now carry an undercurrent of sorrow and unsettling prophecy. And despite increasing danger, Jesus' ministry--and his life--approaches, the lines are swiftly and solidly drawn between those who will stand for Jesus and those who will tear him down.
