    About this audiobook

    Three-time Christy Award winner Lynn Austin returns to the Old Testament in The Strength of His Hands. She continues her uplifting series with the reign of King Hezekiah in Judah, who is noted for establishing a state that worshipped only one God, Yahweh. God has blessed Hezekiah-his kingdom is flourishing. The people are prospering and the city of Jerusalem is safe from invaders. But the king worries that his beloved wife may be barren. After all his hard work in preserving the faith and protecting the faithful, the thought that one of his pagan-worshiping nephews will become ruler is upsetting. But he suffers greater anguish when he stumbles upon the secrets of his queen. Austin skillfully conveys the weaknesses of human nature in this mesmerizing tale about the power of faith and redemption. Austin's Gods and Kings and Song of Redemption, are also available from Recorded Books.

    • 5/5
      The books in this series are amazing. Lynn Austin is awesome. And Susanne Toren is the narrator of all narrators.
    • 4/5
      The whole series was very educational and interesting. Read them all for a great perspective on the days of Manasseh and Hezekiah.
    • 5/5
      Another great biblical novel with excellent acting. It was interesting that Isaiah’s prophecy to the “barren woman” was directed to Hephzibah. Also, Hezikiah’s “sickness” being the result of a fire is not mentioned in the Bible. It makes me wonder if the extra-biblical parts of this book were derived from the writings of Josephus or perhaps from rabbinical sources. However, the true biblical events are brought to life in a marvelous and memorable way in Austin’s writing. The horror of idol worship is inscribed indelibly on the heart, and God’s judgment is understood as absolutely deserving. On the other hand, His awesome love and forgiveness in the miraculous parts of reconciliation and of the nation’s deliverance evoke rapturous praise of Yahweh! Hallelujah!
