Hang in there through these first few chapters of 1 Chronicles. The books 1 and 2 Chronicles are a re-telling of the books of Samuel and Kings but they begin with a lengthy genealogy! In John 12-15 we are in the upper room with Jesus and his disciples. John has the longest record of this time together with intimate details from this final night.
