Bible Note: Dear Sister Azure, The way it has been explained to me is that Chronicles is history of Israel's kings pimarily from a priestly perspective. Whereas Kings is from a more secular or political perspective. On the topic of the natures of the OT and NT, here are some quotes I've found helpful: "The New Testament lies hidden in the Old, and the Old Testament is unveiled in the New." --Augustine "The Old Testament may be likened to a chamber richly furnished but dimly lighted. The introduction of light brings into it nothing which was not in it before but it brings out into clearer view much of what is in it but was only dimly or not at all perceived before." --B. B. Warfield "Redemptive-history is a translation of the German term Heilsgeschichte (heil meaning "sacred" and geschichte meaning "history" or "story"). History understood as God's self revelation to mankind in the person of Jesus Christ, through whom God purposed to love a people as His own, even to the point of sending His Son in their likeness, being tempted and suffering death on the cross, bearing the full penalty of their sins, that they may live in Him through His resurrection from the dead. The life, death, and resurrection of the Savior, being the means of God's redemptive purpose, was foreshadowed in all of history, specially revealed in the Bible, that those who follow after Christ by His death to the age of His resurrection might know God as faithful to His promises, and have complete access to fellowship with Him without fear of condemnation." --from Two-Age.org Thank you, sister, for sharing your insights with us. By the way, your use of English is very good. (You will notice often on the forum that native speakers of the language don't do nearly as well as you do.) In Him, Doc |
