2 Kings in Wikipedia
The Books of Kings (Hebrew: Sefer melakhim, ספר מלכים) are
books included in the Hebrew Bible. They were originally
written in Hebrew and are recognised as scripture by Judaism
and Christianity. According to Biblical chronology, the events
in the Books of Kings occurred between the 10th and 6th
centuries BCE.
The books contain accounts of the kings of the ancient Kingdom
of Israel (united monarchy) and the Kingdom of Judah. They
contain the annals of the Jewish commonwealth from the
accession of Solomon until the subjugation of the kingdom by
Nebuchadnezzar and the Babylonians (apparently a period of
about four hundred and fifty-three years). The Books of Kings
synchronize with 1 Chronicles 28 – 2 Chronicles 36:21. While
in the Chronicles greater prominence is given to the priestly
or Levitical office, in the Kings greater prominence is given
to the royal and prophetic offices. Kings appears to have been
written considerably earlier than Chronicles and as such is
generally considered a more reliable historical source...
