2 Kings : Christian Community Bible

Introduction to 2 Kings

The second Book of Kings continues to look at the progressive decline of the two kingdoms to the North and to the South, Israel and Judah.

God invites his people to observe with a critical eye. While the great dream of Solomon’s kingdom is vanishing, God teaches them to seek another more lasting and important conquest, that of the Reign of Justice.
