Chronicles: Seeking the Lord: Volume 1 of 4 -- From Adam to the Davidic Covenant (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798181897281)

A serious Bible study of First and Second Chronicles - written for adult classes and individual students who want to understand one of the Old Testament's most theologically rich books.
Volume 1 opens the Chronicles: Seeking the Lord series by covering the first seventeen chapters of First Chronicles. Beginning with Adam and ending with God's covenant with David, these thirteen lessons trace God's sovereign hand across more than two thousand years of covenant history.

What you will study:
- The genealogies of 1 Chronicles 1-9 - not as lists of names but as covenant documents, establishing Israel's identity after the exile
- The fall of Saul and the theological verdict: "He did not seek the LORD" (1 Chr 10:14)
- David's rise to power and the gathering of the mighty men at Hebron
- The mishandling of the ark - what Uzzah's death teaches about approaching God on His own terms
- The successful procession of the ark to Jerusalem, and David's great song of thanksgiving
- The Davidic covenant of 1 Chronicles 17 - God's promise of an eternal throne, fulfilled in Jesus Christ

Each lesson includes:
- A first-person narrative that places the reader inside the world of the text
- Vocabulary study of key Hebrew terms (dāras, ʿāzab, māʿal, sûb, and more)
- The full Scripture passage in the English Standard Version
- Verse-by-verse commentary and application
- Illustrations from Scripture, history, and the Restoration Movement
- Discussion questions for class use
- Introspective questions for private reflection

Designed for: Adult Sunday school classes, small group Bible studies, personal study, or church-wide reading programs. Each lesson fits a sixty-minute class session.

The series: Chronicles: Seeking the Lord is a four-volume, fifty-two-lesson curriculum covering First and Second Chronicles in their entirety. Volume 1 covers Lessons 1-13.
