I’ve heard Jonathan speak on TV a bunch of times over the years and have always been intrigued by some of the things he would reveal, so finally I decided I would read this book in particular since the Jubilee mysteries he would talk about always seemed the most fascinating. After reading it I will say there is so much connecting pieces that it is hard to really explain the intertwined facets of what has happened concerning Israel that is covered in the book. Some of the information will make some people think “that’s just coincidence” or “that’s not really that significant” or other ways of trying to dismiss how perfectly timed events in history have been. As someone who would describe myself as a little on the skeptical side but more in line with a “trust but verify” mentality I can say some of the things mentioned left me thinking “no way”, not in a “I doubt God can do that way” but more of a sheer “could that really have happened exactly like he is saying or could it be altered slightly to fit that perfectly” and so I looked some things up and sure enough it was true. The Mark Twain stuff is just mind blowing to me, I mean imagine Mark Twain is your great grandfather or whatever and being able to say “my great grandfather is in the Pentateuch”. I also wonder what the next Jubilee of 2067 will reveal… could that be the return of Jesus… I don’t know, perhaps the return of the New Jerusalem. It’s hard to doubt the sovereignty of God after reading this and you would have to be very resistant to believing in God to be able to excuse these events away as mere coincidences by the time you get to the end. I gave it 5 stars because I believe it deserves 5 stars however in my opinion, there could have been some things that would have made the book better to me. From my standpoint I feel the fiction aspect lessens the impact and almost makes it feel like it is made up at times and many people may discount some of what is revealed because they don’t know where the line between fact and fiction is. For instance the “visions” are well done but then you realize, this isn’t a real vision this is a fabrication to allow him to present his information, and while I do think it helps organize his findings, I would find myself falling into the “is this really fitting together this perfect or is it being manipulated by the fabricated vision to seem that way. To me giving the facts and keeping it straight truth without the fictional components would have helped me stay focused in the “this is all 100% truth” mindset. Now, to be clear that is my opinion and while I know others agree with me I can respect the fact that Jonathan is writing this for everyone, not just believers who want the facts but for atheist and such that may read this and come to faith in God through information too amazing to deny, and with that in mind having a book that is presented in this way is probably the best approach for that reason even if my preference would be otherwise. The other thing that got laborsome was the beating of the dead horse at times. In a way, again, I think this is probably best to hammer home some of the more complicated reveals that if not repeated may get overlooked but in nearly every instance I found myself thinking “yes, I got it you don’t have to repeat it over and over again”. One of the reasons I got bogged down a little towards the last third of the book way I felt the repetition to be more than I could really get through. It’s certainly nothing to deter anyone from reading it, but the 2 biggest things for the majority of people who will read this book will be the repetition and the fictional aspect, but the facts and mysteries revealed will make it worth the read.
