ISRAEL'S POSTEXILIC HISTORY: LESSON 10 NOTES

LESSON 10: ISRAEL’s CONFLICT WITH AMMON AND THE CONQUEST OF THE PHILISTINES (1 CHR. 19-20)

Here is a man that not only showed kindness to those who were under him, but also to those (regardless of the generation) of the offspring of the one who had shown him kindness. Seemingly, David honored those who had honored him, and here he sends his messengers to comfort Hanun who had lost his father. Is it not true that we need to practice the practical principles of Christianity, and to all men? Comforting those who are in need, suffering from some personal loss, is seemingly, today, a challenge to a person's spirit and Christianity. God is the "God of all comfort" and we, his sons and daughters, ought to be the embodiment and personification, of the same (cf. 2 Cor. 1:3-8).[1]

LESSON 8: the Ark of the Covenant BROUGHT TO JERUSALEM (1 CHR. 15-16)

In spite of the reverses suffered in his previous attempt to locate the ark in the capital city, David was determined to complete this project. He fortified Jerusalem and continued to build “houses” in the city. These houses would be directly related to his government. As the king directed all of this activity Jerusalem came to be known as “the city of David,” peculiarly identified with him. As he was caught up in the business of establishing his government in Jerusalem David could [and would] not forget the ark of the covenant. A special tent was constructed in the city to serve temporarily as a shelter for the sacred vessel.[1]

David’s desire to make Jerusalem a holy city is now evident, so the ark was brought to Jerusalem. The Philistines were never victorious in their encounters with David. Their gods failed them and they fled before the mighty invisible army of Jehovah.[1]
