Omschrijving
THE RISE OF THE KING.
ONE MAN, ONE HOPE-TWO VERY DIFFERENT PATHS.
All his life, 9-year-old Uzziel has heard the prophesies of a great king-one who will rescue his people from oppression. When he discovers a new born child; he questions the strange happenings around this child's arrival. Angry at the oppression of Rome and her cruel soldiers, Uzziel is drawn to this unique child and tries to protect him.
As the child grows, Uzziel senses the small boy can see through him and knows about his horrible secret. But as Uzziel pieces together ancient prophecies of a long-awaited King, he suspects this child is the anticipated one who will save his people from Roman rule.
Then, in one morning of extraordinary violence, Uzziel's hope is destroyed, and his hatred of Rome cemented. Uzziel assumes he was wrong about the child and spends the next several decades supporting those willing to fight against the Romans. But now, two leaders emerge-each with very different ideas and methods.
Could one of these men be the fulfillment of the ancient prophecies? If so, which one is the Promised One who will rid his people of their oppressors?
If you liked, Buck Storm and Bill Perkins, The List and Tosca Lee's Iscariot: A Novel of Judas you'll enjoy, Anticipated.

- "Amazing novella. A great, thought-provoking novella from Ida Smith. I enjoyed the main characters viewpoint." Maureen Keoppel, Goodreads
- "This is a book you won't be able to put down. Ida keeps you asking, 'What's going to happen next?' " - Misty Clark, author of the entertaining blog: "Moms for Lowered Expectations."
- "A wonderful story about the Jewish response to Jesus the Messiah in the first century A.D. The author's description of Jesus is based on solid research and a realistic portrayal of the different responses to Jesus by first century Jews, as seen through the eyes of Bethlehem shepherd boy, Uzziel...fun reading, but also very informative. Author Ida Smith, knows her craft." - Paul F. Murray, Readers Favorite
