The Star of the East: Book 4 of the Scribes Series

Book 4: The Star of the East: Nathan was a Jewish Christian scribe in the church of Rome. In 189 AD he was asked by his bishop to travel to Ephesus (with his colleague Justin) to represent the Roman church in its growing controversy with the eastern churches over the date for the celebration of Easter. Nathan is also charged with the task of reviewing the new translation of the Old Testament in Greek being prepared by Theodotion of Ephesus with the assistance of his granddaughter, Miriam. Follow Nathan as he discovers new challenges to the church's unity, new approaches to the text and language of scripture, growing tensions between the church and the synagogue, and a friendship that would forever change his life.
