Few people would list 1, 2 Chronicles as their favorite books of the Bible. Winfried Corduan's commentary will change some minds. Corduan has done a superb job of both interpreting and applying these important books. 1 Chronicles begins with nine chapters of genealogies. Most teachers and preachers would betempted to skip over these chapters and begin with "the good stuff" in Chapter Ten. They won't do that after reading Corduan's commentary. Corduan makes these genealogies live. By helping the reader see why these apparently dry-as-dust sections are a vital part of the Word of God.

Corduan has had a long-standing love affair with these books that will come through from the introduction and run through the conclusion of the last chapter in 2 Chronicles.
