Historical Books II: 1 and 2 Kings, 1 and 2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah

The books of the Bible covered in Historical Books II share a common emphasis centered on the need for the people to remain faithful to the covenant established between God and the Israelites.  If the nation remains faithful to God’s covenant, God will protect Israel and lead it to be victorious in battles, but if the nation abandons the covenant, God will abandon Israel and allow other nations to plunder and conquer this nation established by God.
