The book of 1st Kings that is. Soon, I'm going to start working on the post about Elijah (as I mentioned, I want him to have his own post) but as he appears in the book of 2nd Kings as well, I want to be sure I have all my information, and I just don't feel up to reading 2nd Kings right now. I think I'm going to start Ecclesiastes. Yay!
I digress. The main thing I learned from 1st Kings is that the kings didn't fare so well. Well, some of them did. Some of them were stupid. You know, like people can be. I learned that all the kings who opposed God and His people not only failed, but got themselves killed, and their lineage cursed. Yep. That's what I learned.

"The king of Israel answered Jehoshaphat, 'There is still one prophet through whom we can inquire of the Lord, but I hate him because he never prophesies anything good about me, but always bad. He is Micaiah son of Imlah' ' The king should not say such a thing,' Jehoshaphat replied" (1 Kings 22:8).
