Jonathan and David

In 1822, when Elizabeth Stuart Phelps published her first novel, she was a woman of great integrity and faith. She had received a Bible from her father and in it were the words "Jonathan and David." In some way these two men were the only ones who could understand her. They are connected to each other's choices and successes in ways that no one else could be. They are very different, but they are also intrinsically linked by the power of their faith in God and by their love for God's word. This story about the Bible tells the story of how two unlikely friends became the closest companions in Jesus's last days. It's a story of friendship that endured through hardship, war, betrayal.
