King David: The Golden Age of Ancient Israel, Vol 3 Conquest of Jerusalem (David #3)

4.9/5 (16609 ratings)

Description:This is Vol 3 of a 4-volume epic-novel series, a work of fiction, an adaptation. A modern retelling of the all-too-terse biblical account, without holes and gaps, the most complete tell-all narrative to date. The full story as it may have been. The man, the life, the loves, the times. Even to covering the reigns of 3 kings. Never done before. Even to getting into the minds of the major characters. To help bring to life a multitude of highly interesting minor characters. Aided by over 2,000 years of commentary, e.g., the New Oxford Annotated Bible (rev ed), for era, street life and background. Told in a fast-read style: "And to look upon the fall of her dark hair falling was to feel as if falling. It also promised a hap of haps whose writ was writ large both in alphabetic and wedge-seal. As if to say, 'Hear me, ye poor man thing. I am all the desire of the world that you missed when ye were away at war mating with the Shadow instead of lying beside me, as you might have. In the calm and restful delights of the coupling of lips and hips between a man and a woman. I am all the desire of the world that you could wish for in your remaining years. For you have taken life too seriously, Old Man. Even the crocodiles in the inlets of the Deltaland know the delicacies of courtship, of cooing and wooing. But among men of blood, such as ye, it hath been pushed far to the rear. Is it meet that men should coo and woo less than among the flesh-ripping bloodlust ferocity of crocodiles?...I am all the beauty of the world compressed into one. And it could be yours if ye but dare to live inside the richest of life's moments…."Vol 3, CONQUEST OF JERUSALEM, is event-packed. If you only read one volume in the series, this is the one. It tells how David gained 4 kingships, as if helped by circumstance, if not from the heavens. He wins the last as a rival to his former love, Queen Rizpah. Politics forces his hand against her son, Prince Noam. A bare mention in the biblical account, fleshed out fully here by imaginative fiction. Or we will never know this part of the David story. Also how David conquered the impregnable city of Jebus (aka Zion) and renamed it Yarushalim. I found no credible adaptive narrative about David. Popular ones freely and grossly distort characters, timeline, action. This is a novel above all, with the demands a novel makes to fill in large holes in the terse biblical story. It is in the modern view, as found in the Oxford Annotated Bible. Also based on Hebrew scholars associated with the Israeli Dept of Antiquities. Aside from that, it is largely a fun read about very serious matters, such as how David and his great love, Queen Rizpah, vied for the succession after Saul's death. And the tragedy that ensued. In the end, ruler over a trade empire that reached to the Euphrates, he spies Bathsheba. A replica of Rizpah in her youth.
