About This Book

A collection of narrative and lyrical poems retelling episodes from the Hebrew scriptures, the volume presents devotional portraits of figures such as Abraham, Moses, Samuel, Elijah, Elisha and the Maccabean martors. Verse moves between intimate meditations on faith, hospitality and divine promise and elevated, dramatic accounts of struggle, sacrifice and prophetic mission. Several pieces offer scene-setting and prayerful reflection alongside explanatory notes, producing a didactic yet lyrical sequence designed to inspire piety, moral resolve and reverent admiration for virtuous endurance.
