Al Haines "Naomi : or the last days of Jerusalem" by Mrs. J. B. Webb is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. It follows the life of young Naomi, a Jewish woman, during a tumultuous period in Jerusalem, as the city faces impending doom from Roman forces. The narrative encapsulates themes of faith, cultural conflict, and the social dynamics during a significant historical upheaval. The opening of the novel sets the scene with Naomi and her friend Claudia enjoying an evening by the tranquil stream of Siloë, amidst the stark realities of war and the looming threat of Roman conquest. As they discuss their fears and hopes, the characters express a mix of youthful optimism and dread for their beloved city. Naomi's unwavering belief in divine protection contrasts sharply with Claudia's more pragmatic concerns about their safety. This initial dialogue effectively establishes the central conflict; both personal and political, while highlighting Naomi's strong spirit and the bond between her and Claudia despite their differing beliefs. The opening teases an exploration of deep emotional and societal issues as the narrative unfolds against the backdrop of Jerusalem's imminent calamity.
