Take This Cup

By: Bodie Thoene

Narrated by: Tom O'Malley

Based on Scripture and resonating with historical detail comes a beautiful, fully imagined story of a young child and his role in the Last Supper of Jesus Christ.

When Nehemiah, the child of Jewish exiles, begins hearing whispers and experiencing portentous visions, it quickly becomes clear to his father and his rabbi that the young cupbearer is meant for a higher purpose . . . but what? Certain that the Messiah is alive at that very moment, the family waits for the boy’s destiny to be revealed.

From the ancient site of the Garden of Eden, Nehemiah undertakes a perilous journey. The caravan route is full of danger, hardship, and mystery—all of it linked to what Nehemiah has in his keeping.

In due time, his path becomes clear. It leads to Jerusalem, to a wealthy Pharisee named Joseph of Arimathea . . . and to Jesus of Nazareth.

In Take This Cup, the second installment of the Jerusalem Chronicles, Bodie & Brock Thoene breathe new life into one of Scripture’s most mysterious moments and expand their award-winning historical fiction with power and depth.

• The second book in the Jerusalem Chronicles (When Jesus Wept)
• Full-length novel at 400 pages

• Biblical Christian Fiction with Christ appearing in the story

A Very Good Read

very interesting and new take on Jesus and the Last Supper. And as always, new insight into Hebrew custom & tradition, as well as Scripture. I've now read over 40 books by the Thoenes; I've enjoyed, and learned something new from each one.

Great food for thought

I was so moved by this story and made me remember all that our Lord did for me and how His life has touched so many.

Excellent

Really enjoyed the story from the beginning to the end. Looking forward to the next one.

Amazing

I bought this quite awhile ago, but hadn't gotten around to listening to it. I stumbled upon it again while binge watching The Chosen. I loved them both. Great back stories for what we know from scripture. Wonderfully done.

The Cup Bearer

As always, the authors take the truths of the Bible and weave a tale that makes the unamed of Scripture spring to life.
