Rather than presenting the kings as monsters--with the occasional angelic ruler--this study seeks a more nuanced version of kingship. This book considers the original concept and context of kingship before concentrating on five kings in particular: Jeroboam, Ahab, Hezekiah, Manasseh, and Josiah. Much contemporary scholarship is concerned with the reconceptualization and recontextualization of kingship that hearkens from a negative perspective on kingship, but this book will fully consider the positive and original vision of kingship. This book is ultimately rooted in a hopeful and joyful view of humanity as found in the Psalms, Sirach, and the Chronicles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Garrett Galvin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0814682510\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780814682517\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liturgical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/06\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 186\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.50d","brand":"Garrett Galvin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44120319557887,"sku":"9780814682517","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_42849724-ceaa-49a7-a052-cdd5b0c646a4.jpg?v=1687413687","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/davids-successors-garrett-galvin-9780814682517","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
