-
Israel's first mighty king is born to the least greatest. Saul redeems himself quickly, but later, just as quickly he turns to the worse.
-
Against better judgement, Israel chooses a man over God. Even though God wasn't happy, He still gave Israel a good king.
-
Under his rulership, Israel is finally united. Israel is quick to prove it's strengths and weaknesses.
-
The man after God's own heart is born to Jesse. He is the least of his brothers, but again God proves to redeem.
-
Saul makes a sacrifice without Samuel. Indeed, it is more important to obey than sacrifice.
-
David's future friend is born, with a heart very few match. Jonathan is someone we should all aspire to be.
-
Jonathan fights the Philistines with his armor-bearer. This just proves are freaking awesome Jonathan.
-
He doesn't want the Philistines to humiliate him. But really, there wasn't any point, because they found him anyway.
-
After Saul dies 'naturally' David claims the throne meant for him. Thus begins a time of righteousness.
-
Because every good King has a city to live in and rule. This finally finilizes it.
-
Abinidab kept the Ark of the Covenant for 20 years. Which might sound like a huge pain, but he was immensely blessed for it.
-
Brings back the Arc of the Covenant and parties hard. Michal gets mad at David for dancing in his underwear, which results in her having no kids.
-
The smartest man ever, is born from David and Bathsheba. Under sin, God redeems the child.
-
David impregnated Bathsheba and murdered his friend, and her husband. Yet God still cares and is beyond merciful.
-
Solomon gets a ton of gold and spices for being smart. Everybody is impressed and silver is garbage.
-
After a long and prosperous life, David dies. But, not before giving his throne to Solomon.
-
God grants Solomon one wish, and he chose wisdom. Because of that, Solomon gets blessed.
-
After Solomon dies, his son Rehoboam takes over. Under his rule would be many lessons to be learned.
-
The most expensive and expansive construction project is begun. It takes about 13 years to complete.
-
Rehoboam listens to his young and dumb advisors instead of his father's. Instead of lightening up on taxes, he weighs down and gets everyone to hate him.
-
Jeroboam builds Shechem and golden calves. He does a lot of pagan stuff till a prophet comes corrects him.
-
Jeroboam dies after 22 years. I don't know why this guy was important at all, but apparently he was.
-
The terrible king of Israel is born. He is one of the worst kings.
-
Ahab fights Syria. Through the events, Ahab doesn't win.
-
He is so selfish that he mopes around until his evil wife takes action against Naboth, and condemns him to death.
-
Elisha talks to the king of Israel but he doesn't really like him. Nevertheless God has mercy on him and he gives him victory.
-
The widow comes to him and asks for his advice. Elisha made the oil keep appearing until she sold off her debts.
-
Ahab falls in battle, even though he was forewarned.
-
Judah's future king is born, but he doesn't lead in the ways of the Lord, but rather at his own leisure and pleasure.
-
Jehoash does what is right in the sight of the Lord because of the High Priests' guidance.
-
Joash, the soon to be youngest king of Israel is born. His childhood is somewhat tragic, but God uses him greatly.
-
Among the lineage, there was Amiaziah. And I guess he was simply so-so.
-
Was an ancient Israel king. He did important things.
-
He wasn't a good king because he sinned and did what his fathers did. He was killed.
-
We don't know if he was good or bad because he was killed after ruling for only a month.
-
Not a cool dude. Killed by his captain with 50 people. Guess they really didn't like him.
-
He did evil in the sight of the Lord, just like everyone else. But he did a lot of stuff before he died.
-
He ruled while his father, Pekah did as well. He was actually a good king.
-
He sinned and was probably the worst. He did human sacrifices which is not cool.
-
Wasn't cool, like a lot of other kings. He captured Samirai.
-
At the end of his life (or so it seems) he gets sick but God heals him and gives him 15 more years for David's sake.
-
God gives him 15 extra years, but eventually those years end and he dies.
-
Manasseh begins his 55 year reign, and he did a lot of evil stuff. Including sacrifices, and witchcraft.
-
Manasseh's son is born. There isn't anything really special about him.
-
He did a lot of bad stuff, and God exacted judgement on him.
-
Amon dies. His servants conspired against him, but the peasants killed those guys, making themselves no better.
-
Reigned for 10 years. Also a bad ruler
