註釋

SET IN THE MEDITERRANEAN WORLD OF BIBLICAL TIMES, PLIGHT OF THE LIONS begins one night when Akiva, a young runaway, inadvertently stumbles into the rabbi Yeshua on the night he is arrested on the Mount of Olives. The chance encounter changes his life forever. Years later the streets of Rome are filled with political betrayal, murder and unrest under Nero. Across the Great Sea Jerusalem is on the brink of chaos under Roman rule. Its citizens are doing all that they can to prepare for certain doom. It is amid this world that Tessius Trulius, a Roman boy, and Farrenthias Theophilus, a Greek boy, arrive at Clivus. Hidden deep in the mountains of Armenia, Clivus is occupied by priests who study and translate sacred scrolls that they have gathered throughout the world. Trulius and Farrenthias spend most of their youth at Clivus, and although very different in character, they form a friendship that bonds them for life. Eventually, they must leave Clivus. Trulius sets out in search of his father who has been wrongly convicted of murder. At first, Farrenthias accompanies Trulius and then goes his separate way on a quest to search for Akiva and discover what Akiva uncovered and wrote about the life of Yeshua. Follow their lives and the lives of the other men and women who make up Plight of the Lions!
