April 29, 2010 1Chronicles 8:29-11:21

As the genealogy of Benjamin continues, the descendants of king Saul are listed.

Next, in chapter 9, the genealogy of the people who settled in Jerusalem after being in Babylonia is detailed. There is some description of the gatekeepers of the temple, assigned by David and Samuel. Also, the chapter ends with nearly identical verses as chapter 8:29-38. (I thought I had lost my place and was re-reading the same thing again.)

Chapter 10 is almost identical to 1Samuel 31.

Chapter 11 briefly describes David's accession to the throne of Israel, again, this is almost identical to 2Samuel 5:1&2. Then called Jebus, Jerusalem was captured by David and called the City of David. The three mighty warriors and their heroic feats are reviewed.

Tomorrow read 1Chronicles 11:22-15:29
