Kings of Israel

Kings of Israel serves as a book of biographical portraits of the kings who ruled Israel as recorded in the Old Testament books of 1 and 2 Kings and 1 and 2 Chronicles. C. Knapp introduces each king, the biblical references, the king's contemporary prophets, and what kind of king each one was. Israel's history is full of righteous and corrupt kings that can serve as what to do or what not to do as a leader. Despite the ups and downs of Israel's history, the kings' stories teach about God's unending mercy for His people despite His people.
