The Bronze Bow

Set in the dry, dusty climate of Israel, The Bronze Bow tells the story of Daniel bar Jamin, a young man whose sole purpose in life is to avenge the death of his father. Despite his involvement in an outlaw band, Daniel cannot help his fascination with the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, a rabbi from Capernaum – but he always walks away frustrated by Jesus’ seeming lack of action against the brutal Romans.

This 1962 Newbery Medal-winner is a magnificent portrayal of the journey from blind, consuming hatred to forgiveness and acceptance of love. A page-turner the whole family will love!
