2 Chronicles |
The Books of 2 Chronicles are part of the Hebrew Bible (Jewish Tanakh
and Christian Old Testament). In the masoretic text, it appears as the first or
last book of the Ketuvim (the latter arrangement also making it the final book
of the Jewish bible). Chronicles largely parallels the Davidic narratives in the
Books of Samuel and the Books of Kings.[1] For this reason it is called
"Supplements" in the Septuagint, where it appears in two parts (I & II
Chronicles), immediately following 1 & 2 Samuel and 1 & 2 Kings as a supplement
to them. The division of Chronicles and its place in the Christian canon of the
Old Testament are based upon the Septuagint.
The author of Chronicles, termed "the Chronicler," may also have written Ezra
and Nehemiah. His work is an important source of information about Israel after
the Babylonian exile.
