About this listen
The Old Testament comes to thrilling life in the latest from Lynn Austin.
In one life-changing moment, the lives of the Jewish exiles in Babylon are thrown into confusion and despair when a decree arrives from the king's palace in Susa. It calls for the annihilation of every Jewish man, woman, and child throughout the empire on the 13th day of Adar, in less than one year. Ezra, a quiet Jewish scholar and teacher, is suddenly called upon to lead the community as they seek God for a reason for this catastrophe. When a second decree arrives, authorizing them to fight back, Ezra is thrust into the role of military leader as they defend themselves against their enemies. When the battles come to an end, Ezra's brother Jude is dead and Ezra is required by the Law he so diligently studies to marry Jude's widow, Devorah, and provide an heir. Fatherhood changes Ezra, and he asks God to make a way for him and the other exiles to leave Babylon for good and return to Jerusalem. His prayers are answered and the exiles move to Judea to revitalize worship at the temple - but the fight to keep God's Law is never easy. As more and more of his community are tempted, a new battle emerges...this one for the survival of God's covenant and the souls of His chosen faithful.

Wonderful book
As with the last one in the series, this was a wonderful book using Scripture and adding some fiction. Granted the speech and some habits may be in todays style, but that does not detract from the story in my opinion. I commend Lynn Austin for her astonishing ability to use the history of the Bible and combine it with fiction while sharing her immense understanding of the concepts of the Torah.

Excellent story love the twist
I got quite hot under the collar when I was listening to the Torah’s rules about the mixed marriages. I knew there were examples of God’s grace to the gentiles thru the Old Testament but trying to get them to think like that was liking wading thru molasses; and I was only the reader haha! It must have been a little torturous for Lynn Austin. Fantastic book thank you.
Just one small thing, the narrator’s voice was great except for her gasps for breath at the end of sentences or expressions. This is trainable. I was so she can fix the problem which would make her great.
