Chronicles of the Kings – Book #3 has rewarded
Hezekiah’s faithfulness with great wealth and power, but the godly king has no
heir. In desperation, his beloved wife
takes forbidden measures to ensure fertility.
With all that is going on in his kingdom – and with the Assyrians
approaching – Hezekiah does not discover his wife’s idolatry until it’s almost
too late. betrayal cuts to the very core of his being
and belief in God. Will his faith
sustain him in the face of this deceit, and against an overwhelming enemy?
My Review:
King Hezekiah and his wife, Hephzibah, were very much
in love but she remained barren. Unable
to provide her husband, the king, with an heir she turns to worshipping the
fertility goddess which is strictly against Hezekiah’s rule. This king only worships one God – Yahweh. When the king discovers Hephzibah’s
blasphemous behaviour he divorces her and banishes her to a life alone.
Coping with his insurmountable grief over the loss of
his beautiful wife, King Hezekiah listens to the wrong advice and becomes
embroiled in what he thinks is “making allies” with other kingdoms. He soon finds out that this was a huge
mistake! This fast-paced and action
packed book will keep you turning the pages until you’ve turned the very last
one! Onto Book #4.
