AnswerIsrael was the northern Hebrew kingdom, while Judah was the southern kingdom. The history of both is incorporated in 2 Kings and the Book of Chronicles, which was a later rewrite of the Deuteronomic History, including 2 Kings. However, like almost all histories, there are biases inherent in these books. Kings was essentially written from a Judahite point of view, and exaggerates the importance of Judah, as well as denigrating the kings of Israel. The Book of Chronicles was probably an overall improvement, although it was written from the 'Priestly' point of view.

Who presents the histories of both kingdoms?

A history of the northern kingdom of Israel and the southern kingdom of Judah is found in the Second Book of Kings, which was written anonymously but which scholars attribute to an anonymous scribe now known as the Deuteronomist because he is also considered to be the author of the Book of Deuteronomy. A revision of this history was written shortly after the Babylonian Exile, by an anonymous author now known as the Chronicler.
