In the Shadow of Jezebel (Treasures of His Love Book #4): A Novel | Mesu Andrews
6 posts | 8 read | 3 to read
Princess Jehosheba wants nothing more than to please the harsh and demanding Queen Athaliah, daughter of the notorious Queen Jezebel. Her work as a priestess in the temple of Baal seems to do the trick. But when a mysterious letter from the dead prophet Elijah predicts doom for the royal household, Jehosheba realizes that the dark arts she practices reach beyond the realm of earthly governments. To further Athaliah and Jezebel's strategies, she is forced to marry Yahweh's high priest and enters the unfamiliar world of Yahweh's temple. Can her new husband show her the truth and love she craves? And can Jehosheba overcome her fear and save the family--and the nation--she loves? With deft skill, Mesu Andrews brings Old Testament passages to life, revealing a fascinating story of the power of unconditional love.

Filing up my wish list for Audible tonight ~ my favorite book by Mesu

Crazeedi Did you get my letter?? 4y
Princess-Kingofkings @Crazeedi yes, I have received so many this week (but I've worked extra days and a bit of rough family stuff that I'll write you about) God's still getting my praise but my heart is wounded. 4y

Just finished reading this book for the second time (4 years between readings). This book does not fail to disappoint. Sheba‘s story will take you through the depths of a soul scarred by psychological abuse and how the love of God redeems that pain. Besides an amazing story, this story offers fascinating historical insights into Israel and Judah during the time period of Jezebel‘s life. This book is a work of art.

Redemption thru Love

Mesu Andrews has provided a spotlight on Old Testament scriptures that I had not fully considered before reading this book. I needed to read about the depths of treachery that Jehosheba endured in order to be reminded of the faithful promise of God to provide a Savior from the house of Judah. 👑
This is my favorite book from Mesu. It is important to know that I loved this story long before I became a part of Mesu's team. 📚
