Joel: A Boy of Galilee
Annie F. Johnston
Book Overview:
Joel, a crippled boy, cannot play with the children and has nothing to care about. Rabbi Phineas helps him to find something he can do and tells him the reason that he is so kind is because of a boy from his hometown of Nazareth. Soon stories are going about everywhere of miracles, and some people think that the Messiah has come. Then someone tells Joel he should ask for his back to be healed. Will Joel be able to find the miracle worker?

"I cannot believe it!" answered Abigail, simply.
"But Ezra ben Jared told me so. He was there, and drank of the wine," insisted Phineas.
"He could not have done it," said Abigail, "unless he were helped by the evil one, or unless he were a prophet. He is too good a man to ask help of the powers of darkness; and it is beyond belief that a son of Joseph should be a prophet."
To this Phineas made no answer. His quiet thoughts were shaken out of their usual routine as violently as if by an earthquake.

Joel es un niño que pudo ser cualquiera durante el ministerio de Jesús, pero a la vez pudo ser cualquiera de nosotros en algún momento de nuestras vidas. La narración es fluida y con fuertes bases históricas, es inspiradora, llena de esperanza. Ver a Jesús a través de sus ojos fue refrescante.
What a precious story of a boy named Joel’s physically and spiritually transformed life due to his faith in the Master. The story is set during the time of Christ and is Scripturally sound.
It is such a beautiful story!
Lovely little story set in the time of Christ. Very readable and also tugs on the heart-strings. Recommended for teenage Christian readers and adults alike!
Delightful to read!
This is a fictional tale written in a very real historical setting that brings to life the daily goings on for a young crippled boy who meets Jesus. It is colorful in the description of what life was like back then. I enjoyed it very much .
A Young Boys Meeting With The Master
This book chronicles life and death of Jesus Christ through the eyes of a little crippled boy named Joel. It is a great read for everyone.
This was an interesting retelling of the life of Jesus given mostly through the eyes of Joel, a young crippled boy. I enjoyed it for the most part, although it's obviously targeted at a younger audience.
A few minor gripes--
It was a little jarring when the story moved into narrating actual biblical e
An easy, interesting, encouraging, thought provoking read. This familiar story from a young boys perspective was reminiscent of the Advent books of Amon's adventure. Looking forward to reading it with the kids.
I really liked the way the book puts you into the perspective of a crippled boy living during the time of Jesus. Wonderful way to see him work through anger, love, forgiveness, and faith. Looking forward to reading this with my kiddos. 7/5/15
