The Book of II Chronicles “Is God Still Interested in Us?” Ray of Hope Christian Church April 3, 2012

II Chronicles 36:15-23

Structure and History: Ezra, who was a priest, had traditionally been identified as the author of Chronicles Ezra is writing around 450 B. C.

Structure and History: Ezra leads a second group of Exiles who return to Jerusalem

Structure and History: II Chronicles 1-9 National and Moral Significance of Solomon’s Reign Solomon was promised “length of days” if he would walk with God (I Kings 3:13-14) Solomon’s wisdom in the building of the Temple

Structure and History: II Chronicles Judah’s History to Captivity Twenty kings over Judah from Rehoboam to Zedekiah Throne founded by Divine Covenant and a Temple founded by Divine Guidance

Structure and History: II Chronicles The Throne (leadership) and the Temple (worship) were to uphold and glorify each other Apostasy develops and the throne becomes the worst enemy of the temple

Jeremiah 25:1-14

The Temple (House of God, Place of God): A symbol of the unity of the nation A reminder of the nation’s high calling A sign that Jehovah was still with His chosen people

The building of the temple in II Chronicles is similar to the building of the tabernacle in Exodus (Exodus and II Chronicles 2-7)

The Throne: God’s chosen leader to rule the nation with justice God’s chosen lineage to fulfill the promise made to David God’s covenant with his chosen people

These two symbols of God’s excellence are at war! It leads to Babylonian captivity!

Is God still Concerned About Us?

The real question is Israel concerned about God?

Here is the crux of the matter – II Chronicles 7:11-22

II Chronicles 15:1-15 – Asa II Chronicles 26:5 - Uzziah II Chronicles 32: Hezekiah

Ezra wrote Chronicles to tell the story to inform the nation how to avoid mess

The Glory of God – Israel returned

What about you!
