The Water Carrier

It was a time of rebellion and harse reprisal; a time of the peoples longing for a savior---the Messiah---as Israel smoldered under the oppressive heel of Rome and her minions. When Isaac, orphaned as a chilod as a consequence of the conflict, unintentionally became associated with a rebel band, his longing for a life of family and friends repeatedly was promised and then crushed. When the severest blow came, he collapsed into near-helplessness only to be returned to health through the caring of a stranger and given a new vision of life by the Teacher named Yeshua.
