The book of Chronicles has had a chequered past. Neglected for many
years under the fortunate name of Paraleipomen or 'Things omitted',
meant that they occupied a subordinate position in the Scriptures
until the 4th century AD when the title 'A Chronicle of the whole
Sacred History' was suggested instead. This has since been
shortened to Chronicles and the rest is, literally history.
Probably penned by Ezra, Chronicles is a selective history of the
Jews encouraging them to trust that God is intimately involved in
their story. Written at a time when the Jews were newly out of
captivity and with their capital city in ruins, Chronicles assures
them of God's faithfulness. If they would obey and serve him then
his people would still enjoy his blessing. Cyril Barber has also
written Focus on the Bible's commentary on 1 Chronicles.
