There, the family she was adopted into has guarded the ark at the top of a mountain in seclusion. Ronen is a Levite musician determined to return the ark to Shiloh, where his tribe believes it belongs.

Publisher's Summary
Thomas and Tasmin, twin siblings hired to oversee a wedding feast in Cana, worry when the host runs out of wine...until a guest tells Tasmin to have the servants fill the pitchers by the gate with water from the cistern. Reluctantly, she obeys and is amazed when rainwater turns into the finest wine ever tasted in Cana.
When Thomas impulsively decides to follow the teacher from Nazareth, he and Tasmin argue - since the twins have been together since the womb, Tasmin can't accept losing her brother to some magician-prophet. Aided by Jude, younger brother to Jesus of Nazareth, she decides to follow the Nazarene's group and do whatever she must to mend the fractured relationship and bring her brother home.

Wonderful
The book was fantastic. I listened to it a week before Christmas. It was refreshing to hear an inspirational story amidst the negative news of 2020.
The narration was great.both narrators brought the characters to life. I could see the movie play out as I listened to them. Great job!

Another hit by Hunt
Angela Hunt has never disappointed me, I have listened to all of her books, this one about Jesus, I loved the emphasis on all the healings Jesus did while on earth. I hope she writes a sequel to this one, feeling like there is a whole story waiting to be written with the remaining characters.

Well written
I was hesitant in places and at first about facts and experiences not revealed in Scripture or (as far as I know) even in the Apocrypha. In fact I skipped some parts and had planned to return it.
The story is written to give an opportunity to share many Old and New Testament texts, prophesies and events. I valued that greatly. I’ll probably listen again to brush up on some of these beautiful prophesies in the Bible.
The female narrator was excellent, with a lovely voice (and sounding like Hebrew is her native tongue). The male narrator was fine, but had a lesser role.
All round a valuable book and experience.
