Anyone who knows me knows that I am a history fan. I also have, in the last few years, developed an interest in world events centered around the Middle East and how it relates to Biblical history. So when I had the opportunity to read and review Joel C. Rosenberg’s Israel at War: Inside the Nuclear Showdown with Iran, I snagged the opportunity. This book was a play-by-play account of what is now happening.
Benjamin Netanyahu the current Prime Minister of Israel as reported in Joel’s book, has increasingly felt the burden to protect his people from threats from those who see Israel as a threat. Joel has had opportunity to work with and interview Netanyahu, and he reports the state of the issue with Israel and its future. Joel also reminds his readers of previous history and how that history affects the current day and the future.
I really enjoyed reading this account. I also appreciated Joel’s reflection on a portion of the Netanyahu family that I did not know–the fact that they have personal Bible studies on the Sabbath.
