Synopsis
He trains my hands for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. -from the Song of David (2 Samuel 22:35) The Bronze Bow , written by Elizabeth George Speare (author of The Witch of Blackbird Pond ) won the Newbery Medal in 1962. This gripping, action-packed novel tells the story of eighteen-year-old Daniel bar Jamin--a fierce, hotheaded young man bent on revenging his father's death by forcing the Romans from his land of Israel. Daniel's palpable hatred for Romans wanes only when he starts to hear the gentle lessons of the traveling carpenter, Jesus of Nazareth. A fast-paced, suspenseful, vividly wrought tale of friendship, loyalty, the idea of home, community . . . and ultimately, as Jesus says to Daniel on page 224: "Can't you see, Daniel, it is hate that is the enemy? Not men. Hate does not die with killing. It only springs up a hundredfold. The only thing stronger than hate is love." A powerful, relevant read in turbulent times., In this Newbery Medal-winning novel, Daniel bar Jamin will stop at nothing to seek revenge for his father's death at the hands of the Roman Empire., In this Newbery Medal-winning novel, Daniel bar Jamin will stop at nothing to seek revenge for his father's death at the hands of the Roman Empire. After Daniel bar Jamin's father is crucified by the Roman Empire, Daniel wants nothing more than to rid his land of Israel of Roman control once and for all. Yet when David meets Jesus of Nazareth, a traveling carpenter with a gentle message of love and forgiveness, David starts to realize that the hate festering in his heart might be his true enemy after all.

    I purchased a bible through this seller. It was is a beautiful bible, came as described. I had to soon return it because the print was too small for me. I didn't notice that as I was checking it out. I soon returned it. This seller was very good in communicating with me, taking the time to send pictures as I asked questions before make the decision. Customer service was over the top. It also came soon than expected and was wrappe perfectly. I wold 100% use this seller again!

    Value was great... The condition was as described. Seller shipped item(s) promptly, dropped off at the Post Office same day as order placed/payment went through, though it took 3 days past the longer "expected delivery" date - thanks USPS. The items were in a bubble mailer only, no additional packing material.

    Excellent read

    The book cover is really nice condition. However, the pages were highlighted more than I anticipated.

    Not Very Historical, Historical Fiction

    I was hoping it would paint an insightful, historically accurate picture of the region and period. It seems to deal with the era relatively superficially. The world of the average Jew is portrayed as little more than oppressive to the protagonist.

    Well written, informative, vivid display of historical persecution.

    Excellent read for the ancient history buff. Great view of life back in early Christianity.
