O Jerusalem, Jerusalem!

By Sharon Letson

Book Overview

The destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD was a pivotal moment for both Judaism and Christianity. For the Jews, it not only resulted in the complete destruction of the second temple, but it also brought an end to the system of sacrifices and the priesthood. For Christians, it was the fulfillment of prophecy and brought an end to the age of the Law.

In this historical fiction account, the historical narratives and biblical records are woven together and threaded throughout with fictional characters, in an effort to weave a broad story bridging the time period between 30 and 70 AD. The story follows a first century Jewish man and his family as he navigates a world dominated by Rome, regulated by the Jewish religious leaders, and increasingly influenced by a new religion - Christianity.
