Description
The life of Yeshua the Messiah as you’ve never seen it before.
From the moment of his birth until past his resurrection, Micah and Dassa witness the life of Yeshua the Messiah. The young couple were friends with Joseph and Mary while they lived in Bethlehem. Through the years they shared joys and sorrows. Then Yeshua became a rabbi and the world has never been the same.
As scribe to Joseph of Arimethea, Micah does what the Pharisee cannot. He writes down his thoughts about the young man he’s known all his life.
Micah, Joseph and their families follow the ministries of John the Baptist and Yeshua, a poor carpenter from Nazareth. Is he the Messiah who will lead Israel against the Roman army? Is he a fraud, a cohort of Satan? Or is he something else? The crowds cheer him, then want to stone him. They hail his arrival then, cry for his execution.
See the life as those who lived at the same time saw it.

Advance Praise
Pastor George McVey Seeing the Life by Sophie Dawson is an interesting historical fiction based on the Life of Jesus Christ. It is told from the point of view of Micah, the scribe of Joseph of Arimathea and his wife, Dassa. The couple, who were present at all the major milestones in Christ life, give an accurate historical look at what it would have been like to live in Jerusalem during the time of Christ. Mrs. Dawson's characters come to life and at times it is hard to remember this is a work of fiction not the account of a family who witnessed the birth, life, ministry, death and resurrection of our Lord. As a pastor, I found this tale very interesting looking at what the daily culture of the time was. Sophie did a great job in researching the festivals and holy days of Israel and showing how they applied in the ministry of Jesus. I give this book five stars and think every one will enjoy it.
