Publisher's summary

Princess Jehosheba wants nothing more than to please the harsh and demanding Queen Athaliah, daughter of the notorious Queen Jezebel. Her work as a priestess in the temple of Baal seems to do the trick. But when a mysterious letter from the dead prophet Elijah predicts doom for the royal household, Jehosheba realizes that the dark arts she practices reach beyond the realm of earthly governments. To further Athaliah and Jezebel's strategies, she is forced to marry Yahweh's high priest and enters the unfamiliar world of Yahweh's temple. Can her new husband show her the truth and love she craves? And can Jehosheba overcome her fear and save the family - and the nation - she loves?

With deft skill, Mesu Andrews brings Old Testament passages to life, revealing a fascinating story of the power of unconditional love.

Gods His-story brought to life

So wonderful to have a treasured Bible story brought to life. This was one of my favourite stories growing up.

Could not stop listening! OT comes to life!

Unbelievable narration gives each character a distinct voice! OT is the 552555555555555555555522²2¹2¹²²²122²and getting a final 21²2²and ²2¹1 ²is ²¹175.00 to and 7th all every t1h111e and so one 2²¹²²2²222222211¹¹1things a a have and and 11th 2I wanted wantbefore about probably very ed ²²and 2222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222²2222222222222222 e 2nd 223222222223222222²¾222233222²²2²²²2222²2²²²2²2

Liked this, however...

I have listened to most of Mesu Andrews’ audiobooks , and of course the characters are always very intriguing and is what draws me into the story. I wanted to hear more about Jezebel and her schemes and General Jesu and his wildness over cleaning up the country. I know it’s just a story in between lines of the Bible, it would have been more listening friendly to hear about them and less about war. And I must have missed the part about Anna(the priests 1st wife) what in the world happened to her???

worth your time!

Every believer should read this to understand the history of Israel and God's undying love for all of us.

Wonderfully written and narrated!

This story brought color and detail to this biblical story. One of my favorite audible books. The narration was amazing.

Gave new understanding

loved the book. gave new understanding to the world of that time. Would recommend

Amazing

Totally loved this book. Couldn't wait to get back to it. Mesu Andrews has accomplished her goal - to encourage people back into the scriptures. While I've read all of the scriptures related to these characters, I had to go back and read again as it all makes more sense. I love how this book reintroduces the power of a true Godly relationship between husband and wife and how patience and forgiveness are paramount to strengthening our relationships with each other and our Father.

I love Mesu Andrews books!!

She makes the Bible account come to life in such a way that I can get my own spiritual growth application. I may have read these Bible chapters numerous times and can not see an application for me in my day but Mesu points it out.

great read as usual

I love the way the author pulls a story out of versus I've overlooked all my life.

Gripping and faith building

The battle between good and evil contrasting the very personal struggles of the marriage and hearts of Jahoshiba and the high priest make this a powerful read! The characters are deep, the struggles real, the action moving… and this reimagine of the terrible Jezebel… well done!
