"Obil, Keeper of Camels: being the parable of the man whom the disciples saw casting out devils" by Lucia Chase Bell is a narrative written in the early 20th century. This book can be classified as a parable-inspired religious work that delves into themes of faith, love, and redemption. It explores the nature of good and evil through the journey of Obil, a character rooted in biblical times, who grapples with his identity and the complexities of divine love. The story follows Obil, a camel keeper with a turbulent past, who faces internal struggles as he navigates the challenges of loss, vengeance, and the quest for grace. After the tragic death of his wife, Miriam, and their son’s subsequent misfortunes, Obil is consumed by hatred towards God.

Ultimately, he discovers a more expansive interpretation of divine love, leading him to perform a miraculous healing himself.
