Fiction, Christian, Hebraic Power Trilogy

Author: Rev. J. H. Ingraham




In the form of a series of letters from two generations of young princes to their royal parents back in Tyre, the capital city of the kingdom of Phœnicia, The Pillar of Fire; or, Israel in Bondage gives the reader an ostensibly first-person eyewitness account of the life of Moses in the years preceding his personal exit from Egypt, and then, decades later, his confrontations with “Pharaoh” and his leadership of Israel out of slavery during the Exodus.

Published originally in 1859 as a follow-up to the wildly successful The Prince of the House of David, The Pillar of Fire is the second written but the first chronologically of a trilogy of epistolary novels by Joseph Holt Ingraham called the Hebraic Power Trilogy.  The Pillar of Fire (1859) is intended to illustrate the beginning of Hebraic power, The Throne of David (1860) its culmination, and The Prince of the House of David (1855) its decadence.

This particular digital version was transcribed from a 1865 re-print edition with one illustration, and enhanced by the addition of a further ten illustrations intended to accentuate the reality and emotion of the story of Moses.
