2 Samuel (Joy of Living Bible Studies)

The book of 2 Samuel continues the narrative begun in 1 Samuel, with David being acclaimed king in Israel. He makes Jerusalem his royal city and brings the Ark of the Lord there. We see the glory and success of David's reign, as well as his weaknesses and failures.Within the pages of 2 Samuel God uncovers David's humanity.You will discover that this "man after God's own heart" (see Acts 13:22) was a sinful human, like us all, who had to depend on God's mercy and faithfulness.
