The trauma of the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple, the
exile of thousands of Judea's citizens, and the subsequent return
after seventy years to the homeland with the difficult task of
starting the new covenant community virtually from scratch- all
contributed to a reassessment of Israel's meaning and destiny. The
chronicler-theologian thus composed his work not just as a history
of his people from their ancient beginnings but as an interpreted
history, one designed to offer hope to the beleaguered community as
well as to issue warnings that should they fall back into the ways
of their fathers they could expect the judgment of God to be
repeated. Eugene Merrill's work on 1 and 2 Chronicles promises to
be a significant contribution to the academic dialogue on these
important books. This volume is helpful for the scholar but
accessible and useful for the pastor. Merrill provides an
exegetical study of each passage in these books, examining a number
of themes, especially drawing out three principal theological
subjects: (1) David and his historical and eschatological reign;
(2) the renewal of the everlasting covenant; and (3) the new temple
as a symbol of a reconstituted people. Merrill offers astute
guidance to preachers and teachers in his insightful doctrinal
commentary on the text.
