The Bible in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz)
Introduction to the Royal Kingdom (with Jeff Cavins) (2025)

So if you're going to read Chronicles, along with 1 and 2 Samuel and Kings, you have to understand that it is a revisiting of history, but it focuses on the southern kingdom of Judah, the kingdom that Jesus is going to be coming from, and the Chronicler has a way of telling all of the really good stuff about David and the king.

Because when you read 1 and 2 Samuel, you find the good and the bad about Saul, the good and the bad about David, and the good and bad about Solomon. But Chronicles sticks to the South and gives you kind of another perspective, another camera shot at all that you're going through in the South.

Yeah. Well, I think that one thing that our followers here in Bible in a Year are realizing is that the Bible is not a candy-coated story. It is telling it from every angle, the good, bad, and the ugly, and that is life.

And if you took the United States right now in history, and it's the greatest nation, some would argue, in the history of the world, the richest, the most sophisticated, and so forth. Well, we can tell you a lot of stories that are not so good if you really want to know the whole history. And that's what you're getting when you look at the United Kingdom.

Introduction to the Royal Kingdom (with Jeff Cavins) (2025)

You're seeing Saul for 40 years, and Saul's role was really to unite the tribes, and he actually did a good job. But he was disobedient twice, and God takes the kingdom, gives it to David, and And David now is expanding the kingdom. He's a warrior, and he expands the kingdom, and God makes a covenant with him where they are one holy kingdom. They were a nation before that.

Now they are a kingdom made up of a larger bit of property and people. And then after that, Solomon is going to be the builder. So they all have different functions. We have a uniter in Saul. We have an expander in David with the covenant being made with David. A royal dynasty is established, meaning that someone from him, from his life, will be on the throne forever.

And that means that Solomon is the next king. One of Solomon's boys will be the next, the next, the next, the next, all the way to Jesus. And you can follow that in the genealogy. Mm-hmm. But every single one of these three kings had their downfalls, and Solomon perhaps was the worst. Because as he began his reign, what do we know Solomon for? We know him for his wisdom.
