The King's Cup-Bearer is a story by the British writer Amy Catherine Walton working under the pseudonym Mrs. O. F. Walton. Like most of her books, The King's Cup Bearer was inspired by the Bible's motives and was aimed at a children's audience. This time, Walton rewrites the motif of the biblical Book of Nehemiah (the beginning of the Book of Ezra). The story tells about a Jewish captive, Nehemiah, who served as the cupbearer to the Persian King Artaxerxes during the twentieth year of his reign.
The Kings Cup Barrier is a look back at a story told about a time that was not so green not so grey. Decadent slamming perhaps gets what went on in the key to what I looked at from violence and I concluded the end is not the end.But what was all this bad news about the late 70s and early 80s. That is a major factor in society, the military, and the psychic mental spiritual trap of the map of journey humanity took and probably will adhere to again.

We left Nehemiah in the attitude of prayer. The text also presents him as a suppliant, with this distinction, that while God is still invoked, it is rather a short and silent uplifting of the soul to Him, than an audible or prolonged pleading. The first chapter of the book before us records Nehemiah's appeal to God. This second chapter records his petitions to man. It opens, like the former, with an account of an interesting conversation, in which Nehemiah again takes part, but not 'Hanani and certain men of Judah.' It is a conversation between his royal master and himself. Some four months have passed away since the interview with Hanani was held. Winter has given place to spring; but, alas! no corresponding change, no gladsome springtime, has visited the heart of the king's cupbearer. Up to the present, however, he had deemed it prudent to conceal his grief from the king. Now, at length, the hour had come for manifesting it, and his troubled looks soon attract his master's attention. 'And it came to pass in the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king, that wine was before him; and I took up the wine, and gave it unto the king. Now I had not been beforetime sad in his presence. Wherefore the king said unto me, Why is thy countenance sad, seeing thou art not sick? This is nothing but sorrow of heart. Then I was very sore afraid. The word 'sad' might be rendered 'evil, ' and 'sorrow of heart' 'wickedness of heart'; hence some have supposed that the king, by the special notice he took of his cupbearer's demeanour, 'suspected him of entertaining some bad design, or that he was..
The great Rab-shakeh, magnificently attired in all the brilliancy of Oriental costume, is walking towards the city gate. Above him stretches the deep blue sky of the East, about and around him stream the warm rays of the sun. It is the month of December, yet no cold biting wind meets him, and he needs no warm wraps to shield him from the frost or snow.
The book of Nehemiah finds itself nestled among the other post-excilic books of Ezra and Esther. The first wave of Jewish people returned under Zerubbabel over 70 years previous. It was under Zerubbabel that the altar and the temple would be built. Ezra would be the next to return with a remnant of Jews. It would be Ezra that would aid in reestablishing right worship. With the people of Israel back in the land having an altar, temple, and worship, they found themselves continually harassed by foreign influences in the land because they have no wall of protection. It is this fact that touch the heart of Nehemiah. God not willing to have His people be a reproach, moves not only Nehemiah but the heart of Artaxerxes, the heathen king of the Grecian Empire. God's calling is God's enabling. Thus in Nehemiah we see a man touched with a burden. He was focused and determined to complete the burden given him by the LORD regardless of countless challenges and oppositions from enemies.
