Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Homiletical Commentary on the Books of Chronicles In the mind of the writer the religious establishment is of primary, the State of secondary importance (cf. Speak. Com.). "There are three principal features - (a) a greater tendency to dwell on the ritual, on the details of the Temple worship, the various functions of the Priests and Levites, the arrangement of the courses and the like; (b) a marked genealogical bias, and desire to record names of persons engaged in events narrated; (c) a more constant, open, and direct ascription of all the events of history to Divine agency, and especially a more plain reference of every great calamity or deliverance to the good or evil deeds of the monarch, or the nation, which Divine Providence so punished or rewarded (cf. Speak. Com.). The Object. It is historical, yet the writer seems to forget former histories and gives his own. First to give an entire history from the very beginning to meet the difficulties of the time - to preserve true genealogies of families - and since future prosperity depends upon the preservation of the Temple with its priests and service, he begins with David, describes Solomon's acts, and then follows out the history of Judah (not of Israel), and shows how kings maintained its worship or introduced idolatry, and were rewarded or punished according to their conduct. "It is thus apparent that the object of Ezra in writing the Books of Chronicles was to place before the Jews such an aspect of their past history as would show them that from the peculiar constitution of their government as a Theocracy, the glories and decadence even of the Davidic monarchy were most closely associated with the recognition of the Lord's presence by a faithful maintenance of the worship which he had ordained for that purpose. Such a view of their history was calculated to strengthen the religious element of their nationality, to teach them that their highest glory was the special sovereignty of God over them, and that although that sovereignty was exceptionally exercised through prophets, its natural and ordinary manifestation was to be found in association with the Levitical system" [J.H. Blunt]. The Analysis. Naturally divided into four parts. Part I. a series of genealogies or a summary of ancient history of man in the line of Israel to David. 1 Chr. I. - IX. Ch. I. from Adam to Israel; chs. II. - VII. the twelve tribes of Israel; chs. VIII. - IX. the inhabitants of Jerusalem. Part II. contains the history of David's reign from the death of Saul, partly agreeing with the account in the Books of Samuel, yet with important additions concerning the Levites, chs. X. - XXIX. Part III., in nine chapters, comprises the reign of Solomon, 2 Chr. I. - IX. Part IV. gives a history of the kingdom of Judah (while Israel remained, X. - XXVIII.; and after Israel's downfall), especially in connection with the worship of God, XXIX. - XXXVI. The account continues to the proclamation of Cyrus authorising the return of the people and the rebuilding of the Temple. "There are twenty whole chapters and twenty-four parts of chapters occupied with matter not to be found in other books of Scripture. These books, therefore, are highly important on account of the new material as well as the new aspect of things which they present." - See Murphy, The Books of Chronicles (Clark).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary on the Old Testament: On an Original Plan; With Critical and Explanatory Notes, Indices, &C. &C I. The Nature of the Book. The Book of Ezra was correctly characterised by Bishop Hilary as a continuation of the Books of Chronicles. The Second Book of Chronicles brings the history of the people of Israel down to the destruction of the Temple of Jehovah and of the city of Jerusalem, and the carrying captive into Babylon such of the people that remained in the land. The Book of Ezra takes up the history of the nation at the close of the seventy years of captivity, and tells of the return of some of the exiles to Jerusalem under Zerubbabel prince of Judah, and by permission of Cyrus king of Persia, of the restoration of the worship of Jehovah and the rebuilding of His Temple by them, of the return of a second company of exiles many years afterwards under Ezra, the celebrated priest and scribe, and by permission of Artaxerxes king of Persia, and of the social and religious reformation which was accomplished under Ezra. And some portion of this history is given in contemporary historical documents, which seem to have been written from time to time by the prophets, or other authorised persons, who were eyewitnesses for the most part of what they record, and were collected by the author and incorporated by him into his work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal, and Homiletical, With Special Reference to Ministers and Students Hence Dr. Bahr gives to this section the title: Heilsgeschichtliche und Ethischs Grundgedanken, i.e.: Chief Points (in the section of text last preceding) which bear upon the Development of God's Plan of Salvation, or have Ethical Importance. In consequence of the impossibility of embodying this idea completely in a concise and convenient English title, the translators, while fully appreciating and coinciding in the author's intention, have retained the title which is used for the corresponding section of the other volumes, only substituting Historical for Doctrinal. In regard to the Chronology, Dr. Bahr continues: - "I have adopted a somewhat different method from any yet followed in the treatment of this subject. I start from certain dates which are generally accepted; and which may be fixed with the greatest certainty, and then, by grouping the biblical data into periods which are comprised between these fixed dates, I seek to solve this difficult problem (See Pt. II. pp. 86, 180, 283)." Professor Sumner has added a brief Appendix on this subject, together with a Chronological Table of the period covered by the Books of the Kings. In Part II. pp. 161, 174, 189, 220, 237, 284 will be found a series of notes on contemporaneous history, so far as it illustrates the references in the text. These notes are based on the results of the latest Assyrian and Egyptian researches. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Books of Chronicles: With Maps, Notes and Introduction The present General Editor for the Old Testament in the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges desires to say that, in accordance with the policy of his predecessor the Bishop of Worcester, he does not hold himself responsible for the particular interpretations adopted or for the opinions expressed by the editors of the several Books, nor has he endeavoured to bring them into agreement with one another. It is inevitable that there should be differences of opinion in regard to many questions of criticism and interpretation, and it seems best that these differences should find free expression in different volumes. He has endeavoured to secure, as far as possible, that the general scope and character of the series should be observed, and that views which have a reasonable claim to consideration should not be ignored, but he has felt it best that the final responsibility should, in general, rest with the individual contributors.
