Kings / Melachem; Book One King Solomon and the division of the kingdom
22 chapters. The end of King David's era. The Kingdom of his wise and celebrated son King Solomon, and the sorry division of the Solomon's kingdom into two petty states: Isreal and Judea: each ruled by their own succession of kings, while the people in both states are weakened morally and physically, slipping into their defeat and destruction.
