Rebekah and Isaac By H.B. Moore-Biblical Fiction Book Review


 Book Synopsis

Despite multiple offers of marriage, Rebekah has yet to find the man she wants to spend her life with. Desperate for guidance, she turns to prayer—and her supplication is answered in a way she never imagines. While drawing water from a nearby well, Rebekah learns of a man seeking a wife. She’s certain this chance meeting is an answer to her prayers, and she agrees to marry a man she’s never even seen.

Isaac dreams of a settled life with a righteous woman—but he can’t deny the trepidation he feels at the thought of marrying a complete stranger. When Rebekah arrives after an arduous journey, the betrothed finally meet—both hoping for a true connection. The hand of the Lord is evident in their miraculous union, but learning to trust and love is not the only adventure that awaits them. The Egyptian militia is on the move, and it’s up to Isaac to ensure that his tribe and his new wife are protected.

My Review

Biblical Fiction shines when H.B. Moore brings Bible stories to life. This story has always held a special place in my heart. H.B. Moore has a remarkable ability to create a story where readers deeply understand the characters, even with little background information. As she expands the story, you quickly feel a connection with the characters. 

The profound faith Rebekah showed in Adonai, and leaving her homeland to marry a stranger, truly touched my heart. This story is a powerful reminder of the importance of faith in our everyday lives. I also loved how Issac's story was told to give readers insight into his faithfulness and obedience. The moment Rebekah and Isaac met certainly was one of my favorite parts. 

The addition of historical background, traditions, and cultural understanding is always appreciated. Moore's meticulous research is something her readers have come to expect, and she never fails to deliver.

If you're looking for exceptional writing, intensive research, and informative notes, "Rebekah and Isaac" is a tale of faith and love that deserves a spot on your reading list.
