Samuel was a good prophet. He was the one who anointed both Saul and David.
-
Saul's reign started out good, but then he got proud and became a bad king.
-
Jonathan was David's best friend. He stuck to his side during the whole journey. He realized that he wouldn't be the next king.
-
Saul's reign was very good in the beginning. After he was anointed, he just went back to plowing the fields. After a while though, he got proud and tried to kill David.
-
Jonathan, along with his armorbearer, go to the Philistines to fight them, trusting in God. God turns the Philistines against each other. -
David was a very upright king. He was one of the best ones that Israel ever had.
-
Samuel anointed David while Saul was still king. Solomon actually started reigning while David was still king.
-
David killed Goliath with only a sling. The stone hit him in the head and he fell. Then David finished him off with Goliath's own sword. -

-
When Saul dies, it leaves David as king over all of the united Israel. -
David captured Jerusalem and made it his capital.
-
David loved Jonathan, and so when Jonathan died, David brought Mephibosheth, one of Jonathan's descendants, to the palace -

Solomon was David's son. He was a fairly good king, although he did have some problems with idol worship and pride at the end of his life.
-
Absalom gathers a huge amount of people and rebels against David, who is forced to flee the city.
-
Absalom's hair got caught in a tree because he had very long hair. Joab thrust 3 spears through him. -
They were not supposed to count the people, because they would begin to trust in their army instead of God. David disobeys and numbers all the people.
-
Rehoboam was the son of Solomon. He spoke harshly with the people and so only 2 tribes followed him.
-
Adonijah raises himself up to be king. When David hears, he crowns Solomon instead. -
Solomon built the temple in his reign. He also built a beautiful palace for himself.

Hiram was the king of Tyre who supplied the stuff to build the temple.

God asked Solomon what he wanted and he asked for wisdom -
Solomon built the Temple with wood from Tyre and stones prepared at the quarry and precious stones and other expensive stuff such as gold.
-
When she heard about his wealth, she came to talk to him and to see his wealth.
-
Rehoboam was Solomon's son. He spoke harshly with the people, so only 2 tribes followed him.
-
Jeroboam got the tribes that Rehoboam didn't. He was nicer to them than Rehoboam but he was wicked in the eyes of the Lord.
-
10 tribes followed Jeroboam in Israel and 2 tribes followed Rehoboam in Judah. -
Jeroboam was afraid that the Israelites' hearts would be turned away from Israel when they went to Jerusalem to worship God, so he built two golden calves, one in Dan and one in Bethel. -
Abijah is called by different names in different places. He was not such a great king. He was a king of Judah
-
Asa was a good king. He destroyed idols. He was a king of Judah.
-
Nadab was a very bad king he was a king of Israel rather than Judah. He fought with Judah.
-
Baasha was not a very good king. He was a king of Israel.
-
Asa goes with about 1/2 million men. The Ethiopians have over 1 million. But Asa won and killed all the the men of Ethiopia. They plundered ruthlessly. -
Azariah comes and encourages Asa. Asa breaks down all the idols and repairs the altar of God. He also removes his evil grandmother from power. -
Elah was the king of Judah who was killed by Zimri. He was not a good king.
-
Zimri killed Elah and reigned for only 7 days. In his reign he killed all the people from Baasha. -
Omri comes to kill Zimri, but Zimri burns the palace down on himself, so Omri reigns. He was not good. In fact, he was the worst king that Israel had ever had.
-
He was even worse than Omri. He was a very bad king. In his reign, there was a drought because of his sin.
-
Elijah goes to the brook of Cherith to escape the drought. He drinks from the brook and the ravens bring him food. -
Elijah goes to the town of Zarephath and tells the widow to give him food. Then she gives it to him and her flour and oil did not run out until the famine was over. -
Jehoshaphat was a mostly good king of Judah. His main mistake was making an alliance with Ahab.
-
Asa died of some "foot disease" and is buried in Jerusalem. -
Elijah was like "Why are you guys divided between serving God and Baal? Let's have a test! Bring us some bulls and put them on the altars and whichever God answers with fire, he is God." So they brought bulls and put them on the altars and the priests of Baal cut themselves and prayed to Baal, but of course he didn't answer. But Elijah poured water on his sacrifice and prayed to God and fire came down and burned up everything around the altar: the water, the sacrifice, the wood, everything. -
Jezreel threatens to kill Elijah within 24 hours. He then begs God to kill him where he had run to. An angel came and woke him up to eat some special food. He then walked for 40 days and 40 nights without eating or sleeping because the food gave him that much energy. He came to the mountain of God. God then sent an earthquake, wind, and fire, and then God spoke in a small, still voice. Elijah speaks with God, and God tells him to go back to anoint 3 new people. Elijah only anoints Elisha though. -
Jehoshaphat was told that he would win the battle. He then put the singers in front of the army. -
Ben-hadad came and asked for all of Ahab's stuff, basically. The Israelites win all the battles easily. A prophet tells Ahab that he should die. -
Ahab really wants Naboth's vineyard, so Jezreel gets rid of Naboth and gets him the vineyard. Elijah says that his house will die. Ahab actually repents, so Elijah says that they will all die after Ahab dies. -
Ahab dies of a randomly shot arrow. The dogs eat his blood. -
Ahaziah got sick because he fell through the lattice between the houses. So he sent messengers to a false god but Elijah said that since he was inquiring of a false god, he would die. So the king sent a whole bunch of captains with 50 each to get him. But Elijah brought fire down on them. Finally one came and bowed down. So Elijah went with him and told the king that he would die. So he died. He was not a good king who reigned in Israel.
-
Joram was a king of Israel. He was not a good king even though he got rid of Baal. He continued the fight against Moab, along with two other kings-the king of Edom and the king of Judah. Elisha makes water and the Moabites think that the allies have fought with each other. The Israelites win.
-
The reason that the Elisha was bald was probably that he was mourning. They were basically mocking him for crying. -
Elijah was taken up in a fiery chariot. Elisha saw Elijah leaving, so he got a double portion of Elijah's spirit. -
The water wasn't so great, but the city was. He poured salt into the spring and the water was good. -
Jehoram was not a good king. He killed all his brothers. He was a king of Judah.
-
One of the sons of the prophets was chopping down a tree and the axe head flew off. Elisha threw a twig into the river and the axe head floated to the surface. -
This couple builds on to their house so Elisha can sleep there as he passed by. As a favor, he gives the couple a child because they didn't have one. The child dies and Elisha brings him back to life. -
Elisha was attacked by the whole Syrian army. But God's fiery army was way bigger. -
This king only reigned for one year. -
Jehu was the commander of the army. A prophet anoints him over Israel and says that he will kill all the house of Ahab. So he gets crowned and goes to where Joram and Ahaziah are and kills them. He tells the people to kill Jezebel, so they throw her down out of the window and she is run over by Jehu's chariot and is eaten by dogs. Jehu was good and bad. Jehu commands them to kill the sons of Ahab, so they did. He kills those of Baal and destroys temple of Baal. Golden calves stayed. Like Jesus.
-
When her son was killed, she killed all of the royal family except one who was hidden. She was killed by the next king's guards.
-
When Athaliah was killing the royal family, Joash was hidden. After 7 years of hiding, he was crowned king. He was a mostly good king, but he used all his treasures to bribe Hazael the king of Syria to not capture Jerusalem. He was killed by his servants.

He was a very bad king of Judah. He sacrificed his own children. He was conquered by Pekah, but then all the captives were released. He is almost conquered by a foreign nation, but he bribes someone else to help him.
-
They had to have it a little bit later than it should be because not enough of the priests are consecrated in time. -
Hezekiah was a good king of Judah. He was very wealthy. In his extra years, he had a bad son.
-
Sennacherib came, lay siege to Jerusalem, and blasphemed God. Hezekiah prayed to God and God sent an angel to kill people of the army.
-
Hezekiah gets sick and the prophet said that he would die. But Hezekiah prayed to God and God told the prophet to tell Hezekiah that he would get 15 more years. The sign, chosen by Hezekiah, was to make the sun go back 10 hours. -
When God shows Hezekiah the sign, the Babylonians come to visit when they hear that he was the one who made the sun go back. He shows them all his wealth and the temple. God says that He will destroy all of Judah because of Hezekiah showing them the temple. Hezekiah doesn't care as long as it doesn't happen in his day. -
Manasseh did everything bad. He was a king of Judah. He was the worst king and he reigned the longest of any of the kings. When he was in slavery in Babylon he humbled himself and repents. God is moved by his prayer. He was then released and went back and restored Judah to God.
