Take This Cup (The Jerusalem Chronicles, Book 2)
In Take This Cup, the bestselling writing duo Bodie and Brock Thoene deliver the stirring second installment of their acclaimed biblical historical series, The Jerusalem Chronicles. Set against the charged political and spiritual atmosphere of first-century Judea, the novel weaves the captivating story of Nehemiah, an impoverished orphan boy whose arduous quest for belonging leads him into the heart of Roman-occupied Jerusalem. While religious leaders plot and Roman legions maintain a heavy hand over the populace, Nehemiah crosses paths with Yeshua of Nazareth, witnessing his revolutionary teachings, selfless miracles, and boundless compassion firsthand. Entrusted with a simple wooden vessel that will ultimately become the Passover cup at the Last Supper, Nehemiah's life becomes entwined with the pivotal moments of human redemption. Rich in archaeological authenticity, cultural detail, and theological profundity, this epic historical drama transports readers directly into the passion, anguish, and transcendent hope surrounding the cross of Christ.
