The Eyes of Gehazi

The Eyes of Gehazi

ByW. Tod Newman

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
In the turbulent world of ancient Israel, where prophets walk with power and kingdoms clash in the darkness, Gehazi rises from obscurity to become the trusted servant of Elisha—perhaps the greatest prophet his war-torn nation has ever known. Through Gehazi's eyes, we witness miracles that defy belief: armies of fire, resurrections from the dead, and waters yielding way to the footfalls of great Prophets. But beneath his privileged position lurks a fatal flaw. When a moment of weakness leads to an unforgivable betrayal, Gehazi's single decision unleashes consequences that will haunt not just him, but generations to come. Marked by leprosy and cast out from society, he must grapple with questions that echo through the centuries: How do we recover from our worst mistakes? Can divine mercy reach even those who have fallen furthest? And what does it mean to find redemption when the scars we've earned can never fade? Part historical epic, part spiritual journey, The Eyes of Gehazi weaves magical realism with gritty historical detail to bring ancient Israel blazing to life. Through the scarred humanity of a man history remembers mainly for his failures, we discover uncomfortable truths about our own capacity for both glory and disgrace. This is more than just another Biblical retelling—it's an unflinching exploration of pride, power, and the long road home from exile.
