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.
Synopsis: Great are the works of the Lord; They are studied by all
who delight in them" (Psalm 111:2, NASB). When treating the life of
Moses the psalmist wrote: "The Lord remembered His promise given to
his servant Abraham, and brought His people out of Egypt with
rejoicing, His chosen ones with shouts of joy. He also gave them
the lands of the nations, that they might take possession of the
fruit of other people's labor ..." (Psalm 105:42-44) The story of
the Exodus is an intriguing one. Moses first attempted to help his
people without God's call, expecting success as a result of his own
ability. In the end he never undertook anything without God's
guidance, and it is no wonder that He is linked with Samuel as an
example of the power of intercessory prayer (Jeremiah 15:1). As to
Moses' character, the only strong personal trait which we are able
to glean from the biblical text comes from Numbers 12:3, where the
word "meek" should be rendered "much enduring, or strength under
control," for he persevered through extremely difficult, trying
circumstances. It is no wonder, therefore, that after performing
the task the Lord had given him, he became known as a man of
enduring faith (cf. Hebrews 11:24-29). Author Biography: Dr. Cyril
J. Barber is pastor emeritus of Plymouth Church, Whittier, CA. He
lives with his wife of fifty years in Hacienda Heights, CA. They
have two sons, two daughters-in-law, and five grandchildren.
