5 The Roadmap for Israel: Leviticus 24 Deuteronomy 28

6 as the king goes, so goes the people!

7 Northern Kingdom: ISRAEL King Jeroboam 10 or 11 Tribes Capital: Samaria Worship: Two Golden Calves Area: Dan to Bethel Existence: 211 years 20 Kings, none godly Southern Kingdom: JUDAH King Rehoboam (Davidic line) 1 or 2 Tribes Capital: Jerusalem Worship: Solomon s Temple Area: Jerusalem to +/-Kadesh Barnea Existence: 347 years 20 Kings, a few godly

8 Jeroboam s Sin (Idolatry/Syncretism) Ahab and Jezebel (I Kings 16:29-34) Syncretism vs. Worshiping Other Gods Elijah vs. the Prophets of Baal & Asherah (I Kings 18:16-45) See handout for the account of the Kings of Israel Israel is punished, Assyria invades, and the people exiled (2 Kings 17)

9 See Handout for the account of Judah s Kings Rehoboam is a bum. Some okay kings: Asa, Jehoshaphat, Joash, Amaziah, Azariah, Jothan, Hezekiah, and Josiah. Josiah: 2 Kings ( Neither before nor after Josiah was there a king like him who turned to the LORD as he did with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his strength, in accordance with all the Law of Moses. )

10 Many more terrible kings, especially Manasseh: 2 Kings 21:1-18 Judah is punished, Babylon invades, and Jerusalem is destroyed. (2 Kings 25)

11 I. Solomon (I Kings 1-11) II. The Kingdom Divides (12-16) III. Elijah and Ahab (17-22) IV. Elisha (2 Kings 1-8) V. End of Ahab s Line (9-11) VI. From Joash to Israel s destruction (12-17) VII. Hezekiah to Judah s Exile (18-25)

14 Israel is in exile in Babylon for 70 years Babylon (who defeated Assyria) is defeated by Persia God moves King Cyrus to send Israelites back to Jerusalem to restore the temple and Jewish worship

15 In 537 BC, a remnant returns to Jerusalem with Zerubbabel as their leader to rebuild the temple. It s completed in 516 BC. (Haggai 2:1-9). Roughly 42,000 people returned Quiz: Which temple is modern Israel awaiting? First, second, third fourth etc.?

16 Wave Two: In 458 BC, Ezra is sent to Jerusalem by Artaxerxes I, king of Persia. Ezra was a priest and scribe, an expert in the law of Moses and the covenant. (Ezra 7:25-26). Another 5,000 returned with Ezra Wave Three: Nehemiah leads a remnant back under Artexerxes to rebuild Jerusalem s walls and infrastructure. (445 BC) He also repopulated the city, built a governor s house, created administrative infrastructure, and restored the city in general.

17 Not many Jews returned to Jerusalem or to the old Promised Land. They chose to stay in exile. They were surrounded by enemies, namely the same old Canaanites and the Samaritans. They were a province of Persia, not an independent nation. This is a time of identity crisis for the Jews in the Persian Empire.

18 The temple was a shadow of Solomon s glorious one. Jerusalem was fairly uninhabited. There was a general spiritual malaise with ignoring the covenant and intermarrying. If they were going to succeed again or experience prosperity and peace what would they need to do? (Think about Deuteronomy and Kings.) They needed to be linked to the past. They needed to know how to reestablish patterns of worship. They needed to remember that prosperity and wellbeing depended fully about faithfulness to God and the covenant

19 AN ANALOGY ( AND HAPPY MOTHER S DAY!)

20

21 I. 1 Chronicle 1-9 Genealogy II. I Chr Chr. 9 United Monarchy III. 2 Chr Divided Monarchy Honey, I think we already read this part No, dad. The chronicler has a completely different agenda

22 How far back does it go? Why is this important? The focus is on three tribes. Can you guess which ones?

23 Saul gets one chapter 1 Chr 10 with a fitting epitaph. Ch describe David s exploits Nothing about Bathsheba and Uriah Nothing about Absalom It does mention the evil census but it has a very specific point! (Ch )

24 the evil census leads to the land purchase David s story and Solomon s story overlap from Ch , so that David can give Solomon instructions on how to build the temple. 2 Chronicles 1-9 is about Solomon. Of that, Ch. 2-7 are all about the temple. Over ½ of David's story and over 2/3 of Solomon s focuses on the temple! Notice the ending of the book 2 Chr 36:15-23

25 10 Israel rebels against the Rehoboam, the Davidic King and the nation splits. NO ATTENTION IS GIVEN TO THE NORTHERN KINGDOM AFTER THIS! ( unless is intersects with Judah) The rest of the Davidic Kings (The Divided kingdom) In this section note: success in battle and material prosperity are related directly to obedience to Yahweh, while failure is due to unfaithfulness or lack of trust.

26 I Chr 22:19 29:17 2 Chr 6:38 7:10 15:12

27 Option 1: 1 & 2 Chronicles 1-29, chapters/day! Options 2&3: Saul dies and David established David brings the ark to Jerusalem The Evil Census and the Beginning of the Temple Project Further instructions for the temple 2 Chr 5-7 Solomon s Dedication of the Temple Asa s reign 17-21:3 Jehoshaphat s Reign Hezekiah s Reign Josiah s Reform
