1 and 2 Chronicles: The Lion of the Tribe of Judah

Reading the Bible Today Series

by Graeme Goldsworthy

In the books of 1 and 2 Chronicles, we are given valuable biblical history that shows the outworking of the magnificent promises of God in the lives of his people, and points to the ultimate ful-filment of these promises in Jesus. Renowned theologian Graeme L Goldsworthy guides readers skilfully through the action-packed narrative recorded in Chronicles, leading them to see afresh how the glory of Christ, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, shines brightly through every page of God’s word.

Reviews

[Simon Field · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very helpful for daily devotions.

Goldsworthy gives overviews of all of the passages in 1 and 2 Chronicles while also including excuses which explain how different themes from Chronicles feature throughout the rest of the Bible.
