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.Biblical Novels by H.B.

Moore’s other biblical novels:Rebekah and Isaac“H.B. Moore has masterfully created a dynamic world of historically plausible people and places from a seemingly sparse scriptural account. Rebekah and Isaac brings the biblical marriage story to life, offering insight into the potential hardships and joys of a complex covenant family. Readers will marvel at the saga of this couple whose faith has blessed generations.” –Stephanie Dibb Sorensen, BYU religion instructor and authorMary and Martha“A superbly crafted and impressively entertaining read from cover to cover, Mary and Martha is especially and unreservedly recommended to those who appreciate Christian fiction at its very best.” –Midwest Book ReviewEsther the Queen“This is an engaging retelling of a well-known biblical story. Readers of both religious fiction and general historical fiction should enjoy this novel.” –Historical Novel SocietyAnna the Prophetess“Moore always brings her scriptural/historical characters to life in a satisfying way and she does so with Anna. Few contemporary writers equal her for precise research and in depth examination of the cultural and doctrinal aspects of the scriptural stories she presents to the reader.” –Jennie Hansen, Meridian MagazineEve: In the Beginning“This brief novel moves quickly through the various states of the classic biblical tale . . . the eerie figure of Lucifer and his coaxing words offer lively antagonisms. As Adam and Eve fight the elements, and the frightening feeling that Elohim has become indifferent to them, they struggle onward without direct communication with their creator . . . Empathetic readers may relate to such doubts, and in doing so, they’ll find the novel to be a worthwhile investigation of age-old ideas.”–Kirkus Reviews
