1 Kings

Book • 2013
1 Kings continues the narrative from 2 Samuel, detailing the end of David's reign and the succession of Solomon.

It chronicles Solomon's wise and prosperous reign, including the construction of the Jerusalem Temple, and his later apostasy.

The book also describes the division of Israel into the Northern Kingdom of Israel and the Southern Kingdom of Judah, and the early history of these two kingdoms.

The narrative is interpreted history, aiming to explain the reasons for the exile of Israel and Judah, emphasizing the importance of obedience to God's law and the consequences of disobedience.

Key themes include God's judgment on disobedience, the fulfillment of prophetic words, and God's continued commitment to His people despite their failures.
