Summary: Didn't Stick to what was in the Bible
Comment: I was so excited to read the 5th Book the in the Lineage of Grace series. The other 4 books were true to the facts shown in the Bible and Francine Rivers added historical information as well as what might have been said between the characters.
The books made me go back to the Bible and re-read the story and in the first 4 books, I saw information, I had never learned before & I thank Ms. Rivers for that. It really invigorated my Bible study time.
However I was sadly disappointed with Book #5 about Mary. I didn't think she did the research that the other books had. Also I found a number of occasions where she deviated from what I found in the New Testament. She also left out the entire episode where she visits Elizabeth and Mary's prayer. I have read other material about what the times were like when Jesus was born, and I didn't think Ms. Rivers did thorough research this time.
I must respond though to another review. If you believe everything in the Bible is true, which I do, then Mary did have a sister (John 19:25) & she did have both sons & daughters (Matthew 13:55-56, Mark 6:3). You just have to look up the references in the Bible.

Summary: Mary mother of Jesus!
Comment: This was a very good book and a fast reading. I never was really much into religion and to me Jesus had seem more friendly then Mary, I don't know why? Maybe it's because when I was young I saw a movie about Jesus and Mary seem to severe but in this book Mary seem like any other women and now I see her more friendly and she's the one who bring me back to believe more in God. After reading this book I became more interested also about the old and new bible. I sure understand her to feel upset and sad when Jesus said, "Who is my mother, who are my brothers?" You can very well feel Mary pain and confusion about all that. She said often, "God I am sorry to think he his my son, he his yours." I was thinking, no Mary you got every right to feel bad and upset. The book keep saying the same things, I would had put less stars but I think it deserve a 4 because it was a fast reading, you know more about Mary and she bring back my faith in god. Mary is like any other human and to me now she seem more real!
