AnswerAlmost all histories are subjective, particularly histories written in ancient times before modern standards of historical scholarship were defined. Within this limitation, the Deuteronomic History (Joshua, Judges, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings and 2 Kings), written in the time of King Josiah, provides one view of the history of Israel and Judah. The Book of Chronicles, written after the Babylonian Exile, provides a noticeably different of the history of Israel and Judah, but was clearly based on information taken from the Deuteronomic History.
