The lineage of kings

Here is a link that could prove to be very useful in sorting out the kings of goodness and badness and who's kingdom they belong to: www.biblestudy.org/prophecy/israel-kings.html.

  1. That is an excellent site. I am reading Jeremiah right now and this chart is very helpful. Thanks. How did you find it?

  2. That is a very helpful visualization. Interestingly, seems like there are more "bad" kings than good ones. So much for the kings of God's people being role models.

  3. Quite frankly, God was opposed to kings in the first place. He knew what would happen when power-hungry people got into powerful positions. God didn't really plan on having these guys be role models. And this also demonstrates the corrupting power of unchecked authority.
