THREE GREAT LEADERS OF ISRAEL
1 Chr.1:28
The genealogies in 1 Chronicles mention three great leaders in Israels history. By learning about these three, one can gain an overall perspective on the Old Testament era:
Abraham was the
patriarch of Israel to whose descendants God promised to give the land of Canaan
(see Gen. 12:1).
Moses was the leader who delivered Israel from slavery in Egypt and led them
through the wilderness to the Promised Land (see Ex 2:10).
David was Gods choice for Israels king, under whose leadership the monarchy was established, and through whom a Messiah was promised (see 1 Sam. 16:1213).
