Friends and Heroes Bible Adventures: The Ram

SADRžAJ

The Romans are bringing in an enormous battering ram to use against the walled city of Jerusalem. Waiting to fight it, the zealots liken the Romans to Ahab and Jezebel, who wanted Naboth’s land, had him killed, then took the land for themselves. The zealots draw strength from the remainder of story: Elijah’s accurate prediction that Ahab and his family would be brought very low.

Macky goes to Lucius for help. Lucius is at first unwilling; he thinks the zealots should simply surrender and avoid the slaughter. But he soon has a change of heart, inspired by the story of Paul helping the shipwrecked Roman soldiers, even though they were his enemies. Lucius gives Macky the key to defeating the giant battering ram, and Macky must then risk his life as well as those of two friends in order to send the ram to its spectacular reward.
