Short Summary of the Book of 2 Chronicles

Randy Jones
2 Chronicles: The Book of 2 Chronicles is mainly an evaluation of a nation's religious history. Second Chronicles is a historical record of the Southern Kingdom of Judah, from King Solomon's reign to the Babylonian exile. The fall of Judah is sad, but attention is given to the spiritual reformers who look to turn the people back to God. Not much is said about the evil kings or failures of good kings, but good is stressed always. Since 2 Chronicles takes on a more priestly perspective, the Northern Kingdom of Israel is not mentioned to much due to their worship of false gods and failure to follow God's law. The end of Second Chronicles is with the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple.
