From the heights of being a dominant empire to the depths of captivity and slavery, the book of Kings begins with the grandeur and wisdom of Solomon, but ends with the demise of a once powerful nation. The books of 1st & 2nd Kings cover a period of approx 400 years and traces the lives of the various kings who ruled Israel during this period. The 'Golden Era' ends, and Israel is removed from the Promised Land they once inhabited and prospered in. God uses the Assyrians and the Babylonians as his instruments to chastise and bring judgement on his people. The curtain now falls and God waits 70 years before he brings his people back to their homeland and once again restores their national identity and fortunes.
