Overview

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.
