What the Bible says about Kings, Books of
(From Forerunner Commentary)

The books of Kings and Chronicles are in some ways like the four Gospels in that they give differing points of view, different perspectives, of the same events. Kings primarily approaches matters from a standpoint of the history of the northern ten tribes and their kings, whereas Chronicles focuses on the southern kingdom of Judah. Thus, Kings gives us history from the northern point of view, while Chronicles has a southern point of view. Other differences go further than that. For instance, the books of Kings give little insight into spiritual causes or motivations but records facts of history from a predominantly human point of view. Chronicles, on the other hand, gives us God's thoughts about the history that took place. It is history from a divine standpoint. It provides a philosophical view of much of the same history that Kings covers, showing deliverances, rebellions, repentances, and reformations. John W.
