One of the very best of the Thoene's writings. The insight into Jewish life under Roman rule, the corruption and hypocrisy of power hungry authorities are so like the same power hungry people in the world today.
But, the best part of it is God's relationship with Peniel, the blind young man, his family struggles, his need to be loved and Peniel's hunger and thirst for God's Word and history. Also, catching up with other characters in the previous books and comparing the Thoene's descriptions of Jesus and His earthly walk. I have read it three times. I gave one away a few years ago and ordered another here, because I just had to read it again.
