One is No Better than the Other
1. The kings of Israel did not follow God; they simply got from bad to worse (15:25-16:34)
2. The kings of Judah did not follow God fully; they left what’s bad unchecked (15:1-24)
3. Unlike the kings of Israel, the kingsĀ of Judah follow God’s chosen Davidic line (1 Kings 15-16)
