REVIEW FROM GENESIS-RUTH
GenesisGenesis Chapters 1-11 (4 major events) and Genesis 12-50 (4 major relationships)
In Genesis 1-2 God created the earth and He culminated that in creating both male and female in His image.
In Chapter 3 we have the fall into sin, and the snowball of sin at this point starts to grow
Read Genesis 3:1-7
What strategy does Satan employ when talking with Eve?
ORTHODOX BIBLE READING AND STUDY

1 John 3:4 - Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness.
James 4:17 - Therefore, to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin
Romans 3:23 - For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God
Romans 14:23 - “…and whatever is not from faith is sin.
Hebrews 11:6 - “And without faith it is impossible to please him…”
Romans 10:17 - “So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
So what is FAITH?
John 6:35 - And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life.
He who comes to Me shall never hunger,
and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.

1 KingsIn 1 Kings 1-11 we have the kingship of Solomon who was David’s son. He rules for 40 years and then in 1 Kings Chapter 12 the kingdom splits.931 B.C. – The Kingdom Splits
Northern Kingdom – Samaria (10 tribes) Southern Kingdom – Judah (2 tribes)
2 Kings2 Kings Chapter 17 – 722 B.C the Assyrians come into world power and conquer the northern kingdom.
2 Kings Chapter 22 – 605, 597 and 586 B.C the Babylonians are now the world power and they capture the southern kingdom of Judah.It is here that Israel will be held captive for a period of 70 years as told to them by Jeremiah
1 Chronicles and 2 Chronicles cover the same periods of time and approach from a spiritual perspective instead of a political perspective. One person I heard comment on this said you might call 1 and 2 Chronicles the rest of the story.
EzraWe see as the book opens King Cyrus of Persia has his heart stirred by the LORD. In doing so he decides to allow the Jews to go back to their land.So in approximately 538 B. C. a leader by the name of Zerubabbel carries a contingent of 50,000 Jews back to the promised land.Then in 536 B.C. the people start to lay the foundation for the templeThe work is stopped for a period of 16 yearsIn 520 B.C. they start againIn 516 B.C. the temple is restored
Ezra who is a teacher and a scribe comes back around 497 B.C. and brings revival to the peopleNehemiahThen about 444 B.C. Nehemiah who is the cupbearer to the king of Persia goes back to his homeland to rebuild the wall.
EsterThe book of Ester chronologically takes place between Ezra 6 and 7. This tells what takes place with all the Jews that did not return to the land and remained scattered. Ester becomes queen of Persia. And the famous lines in the book to me are when her uncle Mordecai says:“and who knows whether you have not attained royalty for such a time as this?”Ester replies to Mordecai words “and thus I will go in to the king, which is not according to the law; and if I perish, I perish.”
In Summary:
Zerubbable rebuilds the temple Ezra rebuilds the people Nehemiah rebuilds the wall
And with this you have the end of the Old Testament
Here is a summary review of the events Creation, fall, flood and tower Patriarchs – Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph Exodus – Moses leads the people of Israel out of Egypt and hands the mantle to Joshua Conquest – Joshua is all about victory and conquest Judges – one generation removed the people fall back into their evil ways, it is a dark time Kingdom – Israel comes under one king but then after some time the kingdom splits, with the North being captured by the Assyrians and the South being captured by the Babylonians Exile – the Jews are scattered around the world Return – God as He promises brings His people back to the land. Zerubabble rebuilds the city, Ezra rebuilds the people and Nehemiah rebuilds the wall Silence- we have 400 years of silence at end of OT
