Ignatia

IGNATIA

Ignatia by Emily Isaacson

Emily IsaacsonEmily Isaacson, Canadian poet, plunges deep into adventure in this tale in prose-poetry. Ignatia proves her matchless counterpoint, and belays a deeper tryst with penitence, humility, and even sorrow in this tale of two young prophets. These are the two olive trees who stand before the Lord of all the earth in the book of Revelation.

Justice and Liberty are med students at one of the finest universities in America. They travel to the Middle East and reside in Istanbul, Turkey. Eventually their journey takes them to Israel where they teach, and they uncover a deeper meaning to the vocation of healer in the physician.

Justice and Liberty are faced with martyrdom that deepens their calling, telling both of their deepest fears and noblest character. Someday they will know the reason they came to Israel, but for now it is enough to spell out the emotion of this land. They, in their hearts, cultivate an Israel that will know the Lord the way an olive tree knows its gardener.
