About Jonah In The Time Of The Kings: A Novel
Product Description These Biblical Characters Come to Life. Jonah, his betrothed, Naomi, and his friend Amos suffer the decline of their nation, the politics of fearsome battling kings, and an uncertain future. Feel Jonah’s love for Naomi, the young woman he’s about to marry as he’s sent by God to a dreaded city in a far-away country. And Naomi, who never stops trusting God as she searches for her beloved Jonah. This historical novel takes you on a miracle-filled journey over 500 war-torn miles. Follow Jonah from his home in Israel into the whale’s belly and through the gates of the dreaded Assyrian city of Nineveh. Above all, ‘Jonah In the Time of the Kings’ reveals the very heart of God and his love for all people through the story of one of his most flawed yet faithful prophets in the Bible. Anthony Barbera’s carefully researched novel illuminates one of the Bible’s most remarkable stories of transformation. Barbera fills in the details with a moving and inspiring portrait of Jonah, a prophet who lived in a time shockingly similar to our own. From the Author *A note from the author to parents: This book is for mature teens and adults. It was three years in research and writing.
