Adonai Roe Publishing is the publishing vehicle for the ministry of Steven J. Ellis – books that he writes individually or in partnership with other authors. 

​

Adonai Roe is the English transliteration of the Hebrew, "The Lord is my shepherd."

 

The lion carries biblical significance. David, as a young shepherd, killed a lion to protect his sheep. David modeled the “good shepherd” which has its ultimate fulfillment in Messiah-Jesus. Jesus said “I am the good shepherd” (Jn 10: 11, 14). 

 

Not only is Jesus the ultimate "good shepherd," He is the “Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David,” Who is to return as the long-awaited Messiah (Rv 5:5). 

 

The Christian writer C.S. Lewis leveraged this lion imagery and meaning from the Bible in his “Chronicles of Narnia” when he created the character Aslan. Yeshua-Jesus came as a sacrificial lamb the first time. He will return as a lion.

 

Adonai Roe, the Lord is my Shepherd, draws from this rich biblical imagery and meaning to obtain inspiration for the books published under its banner.
