I created this chart to help you keep straight the various rulers in the biblical books of Kings and Chronicles, especially because many have the same names. It’s color-coded to match my map …

Study Bible: Who were the kings of Judah, the southern kingdom? During the years those kings reigned, who were the prophets?

Know your Amaziah from your Ahaziah and your Jehoahaz from your... other Jehoahaz with this detailed chart and guide to every king and prophet of Israel and Judah mentioned in the books of 1 and 2 Kings.

Although most of the kings are more than one to a lesson, each king can be taught on its own. When possible, each new king begins on a new page; unless there is only basic information about him and/or there is only a paragraph about him. I have the 40 kings divided into 15 lessons; although if I were to teach them, I would probably take two quarters plus Saul, David and Solomon. Some of the kings will have visuals for the lesson. Although some do not and that is why it has taken so long to add them here. Some have charts, maps when applicable, etc. They all have a sheet to fill in to create a notebook. If you want to make an interactive notebook, the pages can be printed at 75% or 2 per page. See a free video here on how to make this option. Add the pages to a composition notebook. Dollar Tree or Wal Mart or Target or Amazon Just a note: As these lessons were written, I began in the Kings and then added Chronicles. All numbers are in number form and not written out. I know this is not proper writing, but it is much easier to see a number when teaching. The application packs are different from the Life of David since most will teach several kings together. Any extra visuals, maps, posters, etc. are included in the application pack along with the worksheet for the king(s) being studied. There is a basic teacher’s answer sheet with scriptures included. Thanks to Christina Barkley for allowing me to reproduce and share some of her king ideas. Please, if there is a typo or error, leave a nice comment on the post it is located on so I can correct it. (Thanks ☺) If you feel I have left out important information about a certain king, please leave the info and scripture on the post where the original lesson is. Saul, David and Solomon are not included in this series. Click here to see more information about them. This is a bulletin board that I was permitted to share. Click here to see the post with other ideas. I wanted to add the printables for this series to create a similar bulletin board using Laura Cann and the ladies of Southside Church of Christ in Rapid City, South Dakota's general layout. I used the most basic crown since there are 40 crowns to cut out ☺. The only thing not included are the letters for The Divided Kingdom. Click here to download. Note: I just (3 Jan 2018) stumbled on this bulletin board at Hands On Bible Teacher. Credit goes to Rhonda for the original concept for the bulletin board and sorry I didn't see it earlier. That is what Pinterest is for! Although I believe in giving the original designers the credit. Check out the website for a lot of Bible class ideas and songs. Click here to see the lesson and Magnetic Board Visuals for the old prophet and the man of God in 1 Kings 13:11-34. This visual pack includes an assortment of visuals that can be used for almost every king. For instance, the people worshipping the golden calves and taking them down. There are 20 that I used for several lessons. These are in color only. Click here to download. As I was working on lessons for 2020, I made this chart and realized I didn't have one for the kings series. This is not in the above pack, but click here to download it by itself. You can use this bulletin board border to make easy crowns. If you use attendance charts, you could make these and let the student add a jewel each week. They can be found at your local teacher's supply store or here. There are metallic and sparkle available in different colors. Lesson 1 First King of Judah The Divided Kingdom: 1.
