Second part of First Chronicles

The reign of David

All of this week's half of First Chronicles is devoted to chronicling David's reign.

We pick up the story with moving the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem.  We get the story of why David did not build the temple.  We get the stories of David's battles and wars.

David takes a census, and gets the site where the temple will eventually be built.

The book ends with the divisions of all of the people who will work at the temple: priests and gate keepers and musicians.
