This is book two in a series of five books,
and it is a great devotional book. If you are reading through the Old
Testament, especially through the prophets and the kings of Israel, this book
will clarify a lot of the questions that come up as you read. The book before
this is called Patriarchs and Prophets, which is also an excellent resource.
Prophets and Kings opens with the story
of Solomon’s glorious reign over Israel and continues through the remaining
kings of Israel and Judah including the times of the prophets, and ends with
the nation’s exile and captivity. It traces the history of a favored and chosen
people, vacillating between allegiance to God and to the gods of the nations
around them. In these pages can vividly be seen dramatic evidences of the
raging struggle between God and Satan for the hearts of men and women. Here you
will read of Elijah, Daniel, Isaiah, and Jeremiah, among others--and you will
find the lessons God would have us all learn from their lives.
