Course Description:
Success or failure starts at the top, and Israel learned the hard way that human kings were no substitute for the rule of God. This course covers the history of Israel from the beginning of Solomon’s apostasy (1 Kings 11) to the Babylonian Captivity (2 Kings 25). Learners explore the miraculous ministries of Elijah and Elisha, and survey the rise and fall of such important kings as Hezekiah, Ahab, Josiah, and Jeroboam. The course concludes by examining Nebuchadnezzar’s destruction of Jerusalem. Throughout the course Dr. Whitcomb gleans important lessons from the lives and events of this era.
Upon completion of this course, the student should be able to:
- Grasp the important theological and historical lessons that God has recorded in the books of Kings and Chronicles concerning His faithful dealings with His people.
- Gain a basic understanding of Israel’s apostasy and the events leading up to the fall of Israel.
- Apply these lessons to life and ministry.
