Summary:	Offering a history of the interpretation of Chronicles in theology, worship, music, literature, and art from the ancient period to the present day, Chronicles Through the Centuries brings to light the power of Chronicles in every age and demonstrates its significance as a biblical book. The work explores important topics within Chronicles that differ from the same narratives told in Genesis through Kings, such as the pious depiction of David, the clear correlation between moral behavior and divine recompense, and the elevation of music in worship. It examines Chronicles' reception among its interpreters, including rabbis of the Talmud, Jerome, Martin Luther, Johann Sebastian Bach, Cotton Mather, and Julius Wellhausen. It also delves into a broad range of interpretation, from Jewish and Christian to ancient and modern to secular and popcultural. Comprehensive and insightful, Chronicles Through the Centuries reveals the enduring vitality and relevance of this biblical book from its creation to present day. - back of book.
