Experience an unforgettable journey of hope, healing, and unwavering faith set in ancient Israel during the reign of King David.
Ten years have passed since Zemira was taken from her home in Moab and forced to live as an Israelite slave. She still remembers her family’s brutal capture as well as the man responsible. Even after all this time, she knows she will never truly belong in the land of Judah.
An unexpected friendship with her mistress, Bathsheba, offers Zemira hope as she knows Bathsheba cares for her and will do right by her. When Zemira meets Yosef, a musician whose beautiful songs of worship fill the Tabernacle, her guarded heart begins to soften toward Adonai, the God of Israel.
But just as she begins to forgive the man who wronged her and her family, King David's decisions threaten those Zemira has grown to love. Now, Zemira questions her faith in Adonai once again. Will her spirit finally break? Or will she find the strength to trust in Adonai the way Bathsheba and Yosef do?
