Route 66-12 A Twice Told Tale

The story never grows old, especially when the crown has faithful historians. We return from the choir loft to the theater, to sea the story of the great king once again unfold in 1 Chronicles. We know the history is faithfully rendered, for hundreds of names are given as testimony to its truth.

When finally we return to David, we see a warrior whose only flaw seems to be pride. He puts the fate of his people in God's hands, losing a tithe for his arrogance. The chroniclers see the work of Satan as God's servant where the prophets saw only God.

David spends a fortune to get the materials to build the temple. Appointing the worship leaders, he turns the plans over to Solomon with his blessing.
