Chronicles Overview (Part 1)
Bible Book OverviewsSteve Gregg
In "Chronicles Overview (Part 1)," Steve Gregg provides an in-depth look at the Old Testament book of Chronicles. The book covers Israel's history from Adam to Cyrus's decree allowing Jews to return from exile and rebuild the temple, placing a strong focus on the southern kingdom of Judah and the importance of faithfulness to God. While often overlooked by Christians, Chronicles contains valuable information and unique narratives that supplement those found in books like Samuel and Kings. Through the lens of a priestly perspective, Gregg explores the book's themes and highlights, including the genealogies, David's lineage, the Levites, the settlement of tribes, the reign of King David, and the construction of the temple.
