Read these three books in the order written to fully enjoy the whole story of what is happening. Rivka Meyers has been transported back in time to the city of Jerusalem, along with Ari Kazan, who is now her husband, here in the years A.D. 62-66. Rivka's knowledge of the future, makes her very aware of the turbulent times coming to the city of Jerusalem. The Jewish zealots are demanding Ari's help to design weapons of war to fight against the Romans. Rivka wants their family to flee before the horrible fighting begins. The story was a very moving story of what took place during this time of history, and it isn't very pretty. The way of forgiveness is very hard for some and very costly for others. I was in tears by the time I closed the pages of this book. Not every book has a happily ever after, just as in life. But learning to trust in the sovereignty of God and trust in His sacrificial love for us, can make any tragedy bearable ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Jerusalem, A.D. 66 ...The City of God seethes with rage against imperial Rome ...and, in an act of unspeakable brutality, Rome takes deadly retribution. War looms on the horizon--but one woman already knows the outcome...Transported from the far future, Rivka Meyers has made her home in Jerusalem with her husband and fellow time traveler, Ari Kazan. But in a turbulent age, Rivka's foreknowledge of history is a heavy responsibility. She knows Jerusalem will be destroyed--and that a prophet will warn the fledgling church to flee the city. Is Rivka herself that prophet? And if so, will the people heed her warning? Rivka's fears deepen when Jewish zealots demand Ari's help to design weapons of war. Ari faces an impossible choice: join the men of violence in their doomed cause, or leave the people defenseless against Nero's legions. Desperate to know God's will, Ari and Rivka are about to face the cost of forgiveness ...gain an unexpected ally ...and learn the extraordinary power of sacrifice. Retribution is a convincing page-turner, full of compelling, distinctly voiced characters. I devoured the book and wished it were longer. No library descriptions found. |
