Description
The book of Kings is a unique source for understanding the history of Israel from the last days of the United Kingdom under David to the eventual fall of the kingdoms of Israel and Judah. Biographical in structure and theological in perspective, this ancient scriptural narrative presents Israel's national history from a divine perspective. Embedded in this story are enduring lessons of the ways of God with his people in every age. In this commentary Donald Wiseman brings to this portion of Scripture his lifelong study of the archaeology, history, languages and documents of the ancient Near East. No other commentary on Kings offers as much historical background and well-considered judgment in such concise and accessible form. - Back cover.
