Best Answer

The authorship of 1 Kings in the KJV is traditionally attributed to the prophet Jeremiah. However, modern biblical scholarship suggests that multiple authors contributed to the text, and it was likely compiled and edited over time.

Did King David write 1 Kings and 2 Kings?

No. 1 Kings and 2 Kings originally formed a single book, but was divided during the Christian era because of the difficulty of fitting all the text onto a single papyrus scroll. The Book of Kings was originally written by an anonymous author now known as the Deuteronomist, as part of the Deuteronomic History (Joshua, Judges, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings and 2 Kings).


When was the Book of Kings written?

The Book of 2 Kings is part of the Deuteronomic History (Joshua, Judges, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings and 2 Kings), which was written in the time of King Josiah (641-609 BCE) and completed during the Babylonian Exile. Another view among some scholars is that the Deuteronomic History was actually written during the Babylonian Exile.


How does the Books of Kings present the reigns of the Kings following Solomon?

A:The Book of Kings (now 1 Kings and 2 Kings) presents the kings of Israel in a generally unfavourable light, while the kings of Judah are portrayed more favourably. This no doubt reflects the nationalism of Judah, where the book was first written. King Josiah is particularly favoured, both because he is believed to have been alive when the Deuteronomic History (Kings and others books) was written and because he initiated the religious reforms which formed an important break with the past.Jewish answer:The Hebrew Bible is rare indeed in that it does nothing to conceal the faults of its protagonists. All kings, whether from Judah or the Ten Tribes, whether before Josiah or later, are judged solely by whether or not they did the will of God. Several Judean kings are castigated for insufficient righteousness, as are kings of the Ten Tribes.
