Two From Galilee: The Story of Mary and Joseph was first published in 1972. It is a beautiful fictional rendition of the love story of Mary and Joseph. It is not meant to be an historical account of what happened in their lives, rather it is a fictional imagining of that it must have been like to experience what they went through. Marojorie Holmes digs deep into the hearts and minds of Mary, Joseph and other characters in the story using vividly detailed language to capture the emotions and provide a picture of this sacred event. If you are looking for a good read to help you reflect upon the true reason for the Christmas season, this novel is an excellent choice. Holmes follows this title with two sequels Three From Galilee: The Young Man from Nazareth and The Messiah. It has also been adapted into a musical.
