It is very well written and, to me at least, brought the characters and the biblical story to life. There are many Psalms used during this book - as snippets, This first of five books about men who were part of major stories, but we don't hear much about in the Bible is a great fictional account. There are many Psalms used during this book - as snippets, thoughts, praises sung, etc. There are also internal thoughts, requests, or hopes that the author attributes to characters, but the ideas are found in New Testament books.

Certain thoughts show what Aaron is thinking and what he is seeing or experiencing at that point in time. Again, all of this is attributable to artistic license. There is a study guide at the end of the book, but I did not participate in it or use it. It takes up about 20 pages and is meant for a more in depth look at the lessons that the author wanted to draw attention to by the reader.

I'm only giving this book 3 stars because it reminded me too much of the Bible version. I didn't feel like there was enough story behind it, maybe because the Bible is so detailed. One part that did make me think was when Aaron compared his life with his brother, Moses. While Aaron was tutored by hard labor and abuse at the hands of taskmasters, Moses was taught to read and write and speak and live like an Egyptian. Aaron wore I'm only giving this book 3 stars because it reminded me too much of the Bible version.
Aaron wore rags. Moses got to wear fine linen clothes. Aaron ate flat bread and whatever his mother and sister could grow in their small plot of hard, dry ground. Moses filled his belly with food served by slaves. Aaron worked in the heat of the sun, up to his knees in mud.
Impact of the Empty Tomb
Moses sat in cool stone corridors and was treated like an Egyptian prince despite his Hebrew blood. Moses led a life of ease instead of toil, freedom instead of slavery, abundance instead of want. Born a slave, Aaron knew he would die a slave. Unless God delivered them.
Mar 03, Gail rated it it was amazing Shelves: kcls , fiction. I really liked this as I can so identify with Aaron. Out of all the characters Mrs. Rivers has written, I really can relate the most to Aaron and his feelings of inadequacy. It gave me insight into what could have motivated the golden calf incident and the deaths of Nadab and Abihu. I think Mrs. Rivers is best at writing of Biblical or early Christian historical fiction.
Lord, I Am Not Worthy
I've read a few of her modern or early 20th cent. The Priest was such an inspiring read that I bought Lineage of Grace compilation, which is a masterful work as well. Having the insights from this book gave me a fresh look at Hebrews 7 and John Contrasting imperfect Aaron with Jesus the sinless high priest makes me cry because Aaron's prayers have been answered in God's perfect time. Praise the Lord!
May 31, Sherri rated it it was amazing Shelves: christian-fiction. Rivers takes the Bible and turns it into a living breathing account of what could have happened. While staying true to the account she adds feeling and emotion to the people that you imagine you're there feeling the heat on your face, the whip on your back, the sand on your feet and the presence of God in the pillar of cloud and fire.
2. The Journey to Jerusalem
I like how she got across the forgetfulness of the chosen people and the struggles of Aaron and Moses in dealing with the people. To see the strengths and Rivers takes the Bible and turns it into a living breathing account of what could have happened. To see the strengths and weaknesses in men that were chosen by God to lead his people. The ache they had of dealing with faithless and forgetful people they loved while trying to do the will of God. I recommend Rivers to anyone that wants to feel these characters come alive off the pages. Feb 28, Judith rated it it was amazing Shelves: encouragement , fiction.
This was my favorite out of the series. Aaron, the brother of Moses. Moses got all the credit. Aaron shows resentment - after all, he IS the older brother. I can see myself in him, as I am the older sister. But Aaron also realizes that God is the one ultimately in control.
He continues to find himself inadequate for the job of priesthood - and yet God chose him to do that job. We are all inadequate for the job that God entrusts on us. Yet, that's how God chooses to work in this world - through This was my favorite out of the series. Yet, that's how God chooses to work in this world - through inept individuals. Moses' brother Aaron was called on to speak for his brother before Pharoah. Then, he played the role of defending his brother to the Israelites in the wilderness.
Rivers included vivid details of Ancient Egyptian culture. She did a great job of bringing to life the historical figures from this key period in Jewish history. I enjoyed reading the events of Exodus from a different perspective. Mar 25, Joy DeKok rated it it was amazing.
I've always focused on Moses because the storytellers did. Now, when I read the biblical account, I am far more aware of Aaron.
In this book, The Priest, Rivers leveled the field between the two brothers. For all his mistakes really Aaron - a gold calf? Oct 23, Akinlabi Akinbulumo rated it it was amazing. What's truly amazing about this book is how we get to see moses through aarons eyes,his growth from being weak and aaron's gradual realisation of God's big plan. Jun 21, Thebarrys10 rated it really liked it. I listened to this tale about Moses from Aaron's point of view. The process of Aaron's path to humility, repentance, ultimate dependance on God was worth the 6 hours of listening.

The Interlude Visit to Jerusalem
Francine Rivers is an insightful and amazing writer - her story brought the life of Aaron alive for me! Highly recommend and looking forward to reading the rest of her encouragement series. Apr 23, Jerry rated it liked it. A good story Mar 16, Grace Kelly rated it it was amazing. Great read! Loved the realism of the feelings and heart felt thoughts of the caracters.
Truly brought to life the book of exodus! Dec 08, Chris rated it liked it. I wasn't overwhelmed with mind-blowing insights or powerful prose, but this was a nice way to be reminded of one of the great old stories. And the voice performance was quite good. It does help to make a little more real some of the emotional and physical struggle the Israelites and Moses and Aaron and company went through. I was going to say "went through during their stay in Egypt and the desert," and that pretty much sums up how watered down these stories become for so many of us.
That I wasn't overwhelmed with mind-blowing insights or powerful prose, but this was a nice way to be reminded of one of the great old stories. That wasn't a "stay"! They were an enslaved people and then a wandering homeless one. For generations. That's one of the things I admire most about writers: the ability to imagine themselves in the place of their characters. In this case, being historical characters, it helps bring the nuances and complexities of these old Bible stories to life in a way that simply reading Scripture can't always manage.
That said, Rivers doesn't delve too deeply into the narrative or the tension, in my opinion.
