In this lesson, we talk through a large chunk of history around the nation of Israel and the division into 2 separate kingdoms. This takes us through King Solomon (the last king of the united kingdom) and then the subsequent division of leadership in the next generation. We also talk about next 200 years worth of separation, and get a tiny preview of the exile which we'll explore next time. This covers most of the books of 1 & 2 Kings as well as 1 & 2 Chronicles.
