The book of 2 Chronicles details the reigns of the kings of Judah and Israel from Solomon to the Babylonian captivity. There were quite a few good kings of Judah, although several evil kings of Judah in the line of succession provoked the Lord to anger. Good kings destroyed idols, groves, and heathen gods, and took away the high places of worship throughout the cities and the land. Evil kings set up new idols, groves, and heathen gods, worshipped them in high places, and even brought idolatrous practices into the House of God in Jerusalem. These histories teach us about man's relationship to God as they function as a mirror through which we can gain insights into life in society today! Little has changed in the millennia between then and now! Society has been on a slow decline away from the Lord for all of that time!

Köstenberger, one of evangelicalism's brightest scholars, along with Justin Taylor, a well-known leader and blogger, this book offers readers a day-by-day guide to Jesus's final week on earth.
