The Disciple Scroll

As the Babylonian empire threatened to conquer ancient Jerusalem, the Hebrew prophet Jeremiah exhorted and beseeched it's people to follow their moral mission. His scribe, Baruch, who recorded Jeremiah's luminous visions, felt overshadowed by the prophet’s spiritual power.
Into a scroll written for his grandson, fifty years after Jeremiah’s death, Baruch unburdens his heart about his entangled ties with the prophet, recalling a vanished world of teeming Jerusalem alleys and markets, the Temple’s splendor, the intrigue of priests, the treachery of nobles, brutal battles, desert revelation, wrenching exile and unexpected generosity and love. And he must choose, between loyalty to Jeremiah the man, and the words of Jeremiah the prophet.
