Happy Feast of St. Elijah!
For some reason, this is my book that seems to be selling lately. (Not in big numbers, trust me!) Maybe it has something to do with the proximity of the feast day.
Tom designed the cover, using traditional Eastern Orthodox iconography and a more modern Western-style raven feeding the prophet. He said he did this because the book is an effort to combine elements of an older traditional approach to reading scripture with spiritual issues of the present century.
FYI: For those who do not recognize the title, it is the Latin for the first few words of Elijah in I Kings 19:10 -- "I have been very jealous for the Lord God of hosts." The motto of the Carmelite Order is Zelo zelatus sum pro Domino Deo exercituum.
