Malchus' Ear is a biblical novel that focuses on the chief servant of the high priest Caiaphas. When sent to learn the truth about a roaming prophet named Yeshua from Nazareth, Malchus encounters a series of experiences that drastically alter the world in which he lives and also reshape his own personal life. Along the way, Malchus observes Yeshua first-hand and meets one of his followers, a man named Yehuda from Kerioth, who involves him in a scheme to force Yeshua to reveal his true nature and purpose. This novel offers readers a fresh look at the Jesus saga and places the main characters of the gospels in a context that humanizes them and provides a complex, yet balanced, view of their motives. In addition, it presents Caiaphas and other Jewish leaders in a realistic way that avoids stereotyping them, while retaining the tension between their religious devotion on the one hand and forced allegiance to Rome on the other. Malchus' Ear is a personal look at life in the first century world of Judea and Galilee that allows readers to re-experience the story of Jesus in a way that avoids both a literal repetition of the gospels and an over-sentimentalized treatment of them.
