The Escape

What if heaven was watching?

What if angels witnessed the covenant with Abraham...

the Passover night in Egypt...

the Rock in the wilderness...

and the march into the Promised Land?

The Escape is a sweeping biblical epic that retells the story of Abraham, Moses, Israel, and the Exodus - not merely from earth's perspective, but from heaven's.

From the moment God calls Abram out of Ur, the unseen realm is set in motion. Angels gather. Covenants are declared. The eternal purpose of God unfolds.

You will witness:

- The heavenly council reacting to God's covenant with Abraham

- The mysterious appearance of Melchizedek

- The Passover night as Death confronts the Lamb

- The Red Sea crossing seen by both heaven and earth

- The manna, the Rock, and the Tabernacle as shadows of something greater

- Israel's entrance into the Promised Land under Joshua

But beneath the narrative lies something deeper:

A Lamb slain before creation.

A covenant kept by God alone.

A purpose older than time itself.

This is not merely historical fiction.

It is a theological epic - a story of redemption woven through heaven and earth.

For readers who love Scripture, who ponder the unseen realm, and who long to see the Old Testament

illuminated with eternal meaning, this novel opens a larger horizon.

The escape from Egypt was only the beginning.
