A Stone Laid in Zion (2003) is a novel by Ellen Whitman Bynum.

Abstract

Books One of The Eagle and the Stone, a series of novels that evoke the atmosphere of the first century.

"A Stone Laid in Zion takes place in Caesarea Maritima and Jerusalem at the time of Passover, 33 A.D. Jesus' separate encounters with two people, Governor Pontius Pilate and his wife Claudia, set the stage for The Eagle and the Stone, a series of novels that evoke the atmosphere of the first century. Their contrasting responses to Jesus--hers, faith, which leads to a life-giving miracle; and his, doubt, leading to a sentence of death--have consequences which will affect not only their own lives but the beginnings of the Early Church among the Gentiles."--Publisher description.
