The Master's Calling by Amber Schamel
After generations of waiting, the Messiah has come at last. And
not a day too soon. All his life, Malon Ben-Tyrus has been stifled beneath
Roman laws and religious traditions, and he longs to be free. The oppression of
the Romans worsens every day, and the religious system led by the Scribes and
Pharisees has grown corrupt.
Malon believes his life calling is to become a disciple of
the Messiah and help free Israel from bondage.
When Jesus heads to Jerusalem for the Passover feast, Malon knows this
will be a historic event. Jesus will enter the city as the Son of David and
take His place as the Messiah of Israel. He longs to follow Jesus to Jerusalem,
but his family won't allow him to go.
When at last his family consents, Malon arrives in Jerusalem
only to discover that he is too late. The man he thought to be the Messiah has
been crucified, and Barabbas—his greatest enemy—has been set free.
Appalled by the cowardice of Jesus' disciples, Malon returns
home seething with frustration and despair. Everything he believed he was
destined to become died with Jesus. Was he wrong about his destiny?
Malon is a very interesting character!
