BIBLICAL STUDIES 102 HW 2 FORUM
I CHRONICLES
IN FIRST CHRONICLES SOME BENJAMITES CAME TO DAVID IN HIS STRONGHOLD, DAVID WAS ONLY LOOKING FOR THOSE WHO WERE THERE TO HELP HIM AND CAME IN PEACE. AS WE LOOK FURTHER AT 1 CHRONICLES, WE SEE THAT AS THE DAYS PROGRESSED MORE AND MORE MEN CAME TO HELP HIM, UNTIL HE HAD A GREAT ARMY. AS WE LOOK DEEPER INTO 1CHRONICLES IT REMINDS US THAT THE ARK WAS UNDER A TENT WHILE DAVID WAS LIVING IN A CEDAR HOUSE. DAVID STOOD BEFORE THE LORD AND QUESTIONED WHY HE HAD HAND CHOSEN HIM.
II CHRONICLES
IN 2 CHRONICLES CAHPTER 7 IT SHOWS US THAT AFTER SOLOMON HAD MADE AN OFFERING AND A FIRE CAME FROM THE HEAVENS AND THE LORD FILLED THE TEMPLE. IT FOLLOWS TO SAY THAT THE PRIEST COULD NOT ENTER THE TEMPLE OF THE LORD BECAUSE IT WAS FILLED WITH THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD. IN THE SAME CHAPTER IT MOVES TO SAY THAT SOLOMON MADE A SACRIFICE TO THE LORD OF 22,000 HEADS OF CATTLE AND 120,000 SHEEPS AND GOATS. THE TEMPLE WAS THEN DEDICATED TO GOD.
