The only reason I don't give it a high mark is because I've heard the story so many times that it's almost boring. Also in accordance with the fact that this is a series, book 5 of 6, I expected the story to follow the story line as presented in the first 4 books of the series. This book didn't stick to the story of the holy men that became the blood line of Jesus. This story went off on a tangent and talked about Moses and the Hebrews' behavior during and after their captivity by the Egyptians. There was only a dribble of the man Caleb who had been chosen to where the medallion that represented the blood line of Jesus. Also, the entire period from Joseph to Moses was skipped. But I think the prior books did the same thing and I really enjoyed them.
I like characters that are developed versus complex. Making characters complex is a turnoff for me. While I checked the mood of the book was thoughtful, the mood also was hopeful much of the time and dark at times as well. I thoroughly enjoyed the historical detail linked with fiction.
This entire series was awesome for me. I have not read Gilbert Morris before this series. By Way of the Wilderness was really a good read. I laughed and cried, and enjoyed every word. I will be ordering some more of Mr. Morris's books!
But in this book the author made suppositions that couldn't be backed by Scripture. The one that sticks out the most is that Moses and the elders all ate and drank with God . I'm curious as to what I'll find in the last book in the series..off to start reading it now.
This author is so good. I enjoyed reading the whole series. I would check back with the Bible to see if he followed it closely or what. It was just so right on. I recommend this series to anyone wanting a good read. The story is one even teenagers could read. A good learning tool.
disappointed in the least as they are all superlative in their own right. I would !ike this series to go on following the Lions of Judah to the present but know that won't happen. It is well written and editted, smoothly flowing in the story line, and true to the scriptures we know. Thank you Mr. Morris for your writing expertise.
There's only one more episode left. I am awe struck at how Our Lord helped Mr. Morris use His Word, the Bible, to write such a beautiful novel filled with truth and to emphasize the Unbelievable, never-ending love of God for us all as we come to grips that it is He who is God and not us,
I have loved having the Old Testament come to life through the series, Lions of Judah. In "By Way of the Wilderness" the author brings such vivid reality to the life and struggles of Moses and his very unique communication with God. It has helped me have a better appreciation of the Bible stories and the authenticity of the Word of God.
