Synopsis

A study edition that aligns the biblical narratives of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles for clear comparison.

Designed for readers who want to trace parallel accounts side by side, this edition presents the material in a two‑column format when two accounts exist and in the usual form when only one account appears. It is especially useful for advanced students who wish to collate the two authorities directly.

Arranged by R. Somervell, M.A., assistant master and bursar of Harrow School, with an introduction reprinted from S. R. Driver’s Literature of the Old Testament. The work makes the Reigns of David and Solomon accessible in the text of the Revised Version 1885 and includes introductory material and contextual notes to aid study.

  • Parallel text presentation to compare Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles side by side.
  • Introductory material and notes that frame the narrative and method.
  • Clear organization around the reigns of David and Solomon, with a focus on school‑level accessibility.
  • Instinctive layout designed to support classroom use and independent study.

Ideal for readers of biblical history, students of the Old Testament, and anyone seeking a structured, scholarly view of these intertwined narratives.
