Kings of Israel (3 Units)
This
practical study provides a comprehensive history of the kings of Israel
as recorded in the books of the Kings and Chronicles. Although these
historic accounts differ in presentation and style, they communicate
God’s work and ever-present guidance throughout Israel’s history. --------------- Christopher
Knapp (1870-1945) was a devoted student of God’s Word. During his early
years of ministry, Knapp went to the Bahamas as an evangelist, where he
enjoyed a fruitful ministry. Later, Knapp and his wife went to
Honduras, Central America, as pioneer missionaries. For five years they
sowed the seed of the Gospel, often taking long and arduous journeys
into the interior. After contracting malaria, Knapp returned to the
States and continued to minister the Word. He continued an effective
written ministry almost to the end of his life. Here's What People Are Saying! “We
are delighted to see this excellent volume back in print again, and we
feel that all lovers of the O.T. historical books will share this
feeling when they explore it. This
area of Jewish monarchical history seems to be little trodden by
preachers and teachers. Perhaps the reason behind this is the dim
feeling that the way is somewhat obscure, and expository literature
thereon scarce. If this has been the attitude, then it need obtain no
longer, for Mr Knapp's cogent presentation, along with a helpful
introduction by the late Dr. H.A. Ironside, is most informative and
spiritual. While most certainly scholarship is not lacking, the author
ever seeks to speak to the heart and conscience, pressing the practical
lessons upon his readers. The contemporary prophets and their messages are given their place, and a helpful chronological table is provided. This laudable volume is a must for every lover of expository and edifying Biblical literature.”
