Bag om The History of Israel's Divided Kingdom
The history of Israel - from Solomon to Assyria's annihilation of the Northern Kingdom - and the histories of the neighboring civilizations that helped shape Israel's course -Egypt, Syria, Philistia, Assyria, Babylon, and others - are seldom taught and little understood. Some of the Bible's best-loved and most dramatic stories are nestled in this period - including the ministries of Elijah, Elisha, Obadiah, Jonah, and Nahum - but they are told in 1 and 2 Kings, 1 and 2 Chronicles, and the books of prophecy, making it difficult to follow the story. This book pulls everything together in a single, smooth narrative - and it simplifies and explains some of the most otherwise confusing parts of Scripture. The Bible, with its usual inerrancy, gives all the necessary clues, in plain ink, to work out every detail flawlessly, and, with proper understanding, the whole account of this epoch emerges with perfect clarity. If you want to know the true, full story of the Kings of Israel and Judah, this book is for you. If you are a believer, it will enhance your devotions by helping you know the Biblical narrative more intimately. If you are a skeptic, its logic will challenge your doubts. Here you will discover facets of this era - surprising things in plain sight - in the ink on the pages of Scripture - but that many have overlooked.
