Forbidden Gates is historical fiction by Denise Williamson, set in Jerusalem in the first century. This Christian fiction book tells the story of Nathan, the son of a temple money-changer. Nathan knows the laws of God’s house, and he has never questioned the rules. But when Dorian, a young Gentile, asks to meet with God, Nathan decides to take him into the temple, a forbidden act that defiles the temple on the eve of the Feast of the Harvest. Nathan is caught not only in the center of a growing conflict between temple officials and the disciples of the recently crucified Jesus but also in his own struggle to find real truth.
