Jesus was crucified, then stabbed, to make sure He was dead. He was placed in a tomb and stayed there for three days. God the Father raised His Son Jesus from the dead. Jesus met with his disciples and ascended into heaven and came back, more than a couple of times, as recorded in the Bible. 

Jesus forgave the sins of a paralyzed man. Then Jesus healed him. Jesus healed people on the Sabbath, and he ate with sinners. Jesus taught through parables, which unbelievers didn't understand.

Jesus healed people and cast out demons. He did this as a demonstration of the fact that He is the Messiah. Even so, some people rejected Jesus. Jesus taught a group of men to serve in the same way Jesus was serving. He was preparing them to be witnesses for Him after He was gone.

Jesus preached to a large crowd. Then He healed a leper. Then He healed the servant of a Roman. Then He healed Peter's mother-in-law. Then He calmed a storm by speaking to the wind and the waves. Then He healed a man possessed by demons. Then He healed a woman who had been sick for 12 years. Then He raised a girl from the dead.

Jesus offered living water to the pharisee Nicodemus and the woman at the well. Those who hear the words of Jesus and do them, are building their house on the rock. Those who hear the words of Jesus and don't do them are building their house on sand.

Jesus came into the world. His coming was prophesied. King Herod tried to find Him and kill HIm, when he was still a baby. His family escaped to Egypt until after Herod died. When Jesus was 30 years old, He was baptized by John the Baptist, and then fasted in wilderness for 40 days. Then Jesus was tempted by Satan, and resisted temptation. Jesus started his ministry, performing miracles and telling people He was the Messiah. They rejected His message, and tried to push Him off a cliff, but it wasn't yet time for Him to die. 

In the last few small books of the Old Testament, God's prophets speak to God's people about the people's relationship to God. They are told to honor God in what they do. They are told to rebuild the Temple of God. God would empower them to do it in a way that the results would honor God. They are told to give back to God from what God had given to them, and they would receive more blessing from God. They are told that God will send them the Messiah.

Daniel's calling as a prophet started after the last king of Judah was dethroned, and the people of Judah were marched into exile. Daniel served God under many foreign kings. God protected him and gave him visions about the future, and about the coming Messiah. Ezra and Nehemiah served God in leading God's people as they went back to their homeland. Obadiah prophesied to the Edomites. The Edomites and the Israelites had a centuries long feud. The were both descendents of Abraham. Obadiah reminded them they were brothers, and warned the Edomites not to persecute the Israelites.

King Solomon started well, but didn't end well. He died and his kingdom was divided. After 244 years, the northern kingdom fell to foreign invasion. After another 150 years, the the southern kingdom fell to foreign invasion. God took care of His people, even while they were in exile. Daniel was a prophet from Judah, who served God through the reigns of several foreign kings.

Solomon built a great temple for God. But Solomon was lead away from God by his many wives, who brought with them their own gods. Solomon died and the kingdom was divided. Solomon's son promised the people his rule would be more harsh than Solomon's rule. Ten of the twelve tribes seceded from the union and were ruled by King Jeroboam. Solomon's son Rehoboam had the tribes of Judah and Benjamin. The kingdoms were neighbors for many years.
