“Elisabeth: Mother of John the Baptist” by Heather B. Moore

About the Book:

Her greatest sacrifice became her greatest legacy.

Zacharias has loved Elisabeth all his life. When negotiations are made for their marriage, the childhood friends trust that their future will be bright. But as their story unfolds in their village near Jerusalem, the life they build together is marked by both the joy of love and the sorrows of loss and longing, for as the years pass by, the steadfast couple is never blessed with the thing they desire above all: a child.

Now beyond childbearing years, it seems that the couple’s righteous desire will never be granted—until a divine promise is made, and they learn that their fate will transcend the bounds of age and mortal comprehension. Elisabeth and Zacharias are destined to play a pivotal role in the fulfillment of ancient scripture, and they soon come to understand that God’s plan is far grander than they ever dreamed.

 

My Review

I loved this biblical fiction story about Elisabeth and Zacharias! This author has an amazing gift with bringing the scriptures alive in her biblical fiction books. I have been reading HB Moore’s biblical fiction for many years and they are my absolute favorite!

I loved this telling of Elizabeth, the mother of John the Baptist. So many emotions, especially reading in the month of December while contemplating the birth of Jesus Christ in the Christmas season.

I felt like I was right there with a characters in their time experiencing their lives. Wonderful characters, setting, and storyline. It flowed throughout using scripture references, and biblical facts. I absolutely loved it!

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions and views expressed are my own.
