If you chosen to take the free Bible study course offered through this Google blog, you may now be ready for lesson 7.  In the previous Bible study on the "United Kingdom," you are now ready to learn about the "Divided Kingdom."

Israel had been a united nation for many years.  God was its "King" for several years.  Then the time came when the nation of Israel wanted an earthly king to be like the surrounding nations.  God allowed the nation of Israel to have a 40 year reign under Saul.  Then David reigned for 40 years.  Solomon then reigned over Israel for 40 more years.  Then the kingdom of Israel "split" into northern Israel.

One cannot appreciate some parts of the New Testament without having some understanding of the Old Testament. If you are not currently enrolled in this free Bible study course, use the link on this page to start the process today.  You will enhance your understanding of the Old Testament and learn a lot more about the New Testament.

May God richly bless your efforts to study and better know His word!
