1 Kings Overview + 1: David, on His Deathbed, Fights for Solomon’s Succession

Recap of Where We Are + How Kings Fits into the Bible:

The Bible is a collection of small stories that together tell a much larger story.

  • The larger story is the entire history of our redemption, with Jesus as the ultimate hero.
  • Kings is in the middle of that history. We are on a journey through God’s plan to save us. 

How does 1 and 2 Kings fit into the Bible?

  • 1 Kings is the 11th book in the Old Testament and 2 Kings is the 12th.
  • The Old Testament has 5 divisions. The next division is called the History books which include 12 books. The division is aptly named because these books describe Israel’s history in Canaan. We have discussed 5 of the History books, seasons 5-10. The Books of Kings are right in the middle of The History Books, which begins with the book of Joshua and ends with the book of Esther.

Thank you for being a part of the club.
