1 & 2 Chronicles contains maps of the Holy Land and Jerusalem, as well as an extensive introduction that includes the relationship of 1 & 2 Chronicles to 1 & 2 Samuel and 1 & 2 Kings. Barnes' commentary is a concise and thorough look at these Old Testament books and the historical context within which they are placed.
There are no better books in exposition of the different parts of Scripture than those contained in the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges. The series has long since established its claim to an honorable place in the front rank of first-rate commentaries; and the teacher or preacher who masters its volumes will be, like Apollos, mighty in the Scriptures.
