Elisabeth

Her greatest sacrifice became her greatest legacy. Zacharias has loved Elisabeth all his life. When negotiations are made for their marriage, the childhood friends trust that their future will be bright. But as their story unfolds in their village near Jerusalem, the life they build together is marked by both the joy of love and the sorrows of loss and longing, for as the years pass by, the steadfast couple is never blessed with the thing they desire above all: a child. Now beyond childbearing years, it seems that the couple's righteous desire will never be granted-until a divine promise is made, and they learn that their fate will transcend the bounds of age and mortal comprehension. Elisabeth and Zacharias are destined to play a pivotal role in the fulfillment of ancient scripture, and they soon come to understand that God's plan is far grander than they ever dreamed.

Moore's other biblical novels: Rebekah and Isaac "H.B. Moore has masterfully created a dynamic world of historically plausible people and places from a seemingly sparse scriptural account. Rebekah and Isaac brings the biblical marriage story to life, offering insight into the potential hardships and joys of a complex covenant family. Readers will marvel at the saga of this couple whose faith has blessed generations." -Stephanie Dibb Sorensen, BYU religion instructor and author
