Ahinoam and her father Toren, Kenites from Jezreel, had to escape their home when they were attacked by the Amelekites. Having learnt the art of sword and dagger making, and throwing from her father, Ahinoam is a force to be reckoned with…….
It is the time of Saul’s disobedience and David ben Jesse, having been anointed as king by Samuel the prophet, is fleeing for his life with his loyal followers when Toren and Ahinoam find him and join his company. Ahinoam uses her incredible knife throwing skill to save David’s life…….
Ahinoam is very strong and brave and follows Yahweh even when the things He asks her to do are hard. Especially when David takes Abigail as his second wife.
I particularly like the author’s use of scripture throughout the book and the way David sings his psalms to Yahweh.
I am not going to tell you any more for fear of spoiling things for you.
I was given a free copy of the book by NetGalley from Bethany House Publishers. The opinions in this review are completely my own.
