Hey, this is Shelby and Scott. We are here to wrap up the book of First Chronicles. We hope that you are subscribed and following along because we start Second Chronicles tomorrow, which is a continuation, but is going to have a different pace than First Chronicles has had in going through the Kings.

But Scott, bring us home in this book. What's happening in this last few chapters?

Yeah. Yeah, the last several chapters like we've talked about are all about David preparing

things for Solomon to build the temple after he passes away. So, you know, all the way back in

chapter 22, we saw him providing stone cutters and iron and cedar.

We had a lot of stuff about the Levites who would serve the temple.

I didn't mention this yesterday, but some of the Levites would serve as musicians.

So they would help to just reinforce the truths of scripture through song, which is beautiful.

like gatekeepers and treasures and officials who would serve at the temple. And then David

has just done so much stuff that at the end of 28, he says, here are the divisions of the priests and the Levites for all the service of God's house.

And the leaders and all the people are at your every command.

And then in general, I just, I love, love, love,

these final two chapters of Chronicles, Shelby. Okay, that was, that was big. You love, love, love,

love. There's three loves in there. So why do you love these chapters so much, these last few?

And what stands out to you? Yeah, you just have these speeches from David, which I just find

so beautiful. Like, he speaks to the officials in chapter 28. He tells him to observe and follow

all the commands of the Lord your God. He speaks to his son Solomon. He says that if you seek God,

he will be found by you, but if you abandon him, he will reject you. And then in chapter 29, the final chapter

of first chronicles, he encourages all the people to joyfully and generously provide for all the needs
