The themes of 2 Samuel are the sovereignty of the God of Israel, kingship, and how fortune can run both ways. Through Samuel, Saul, and David, these themes play out.
Some key themes of the Biblical Book II Samuel include the consequences of sin, the nature of kingship, loyalty and betrayal, the role of God in human affairs, leadership, and the establishment of the Davidic dynasty. The book also highlights the complexities of relationships and power dynamics among individuals.
While it is debated who wrote 2 Thessalonians, the usual argument is to put it later. Certainly the evidence points to early authorship, which then also points to Paul, which then puts it after 1 Thessalonians. So, no, it is not debated in terms of it being the first book written.

It is impossible to link any book of the Old Testament to any one writer. There are in fact two Books of Chronicles. It may be based partly on the Book of Samuel and the two Books of Kings. Ezra is thought to be the writer, but as said above this is unlikely.Because the author is unknown and will probably remain so, he is commonly referred to by scholars as the Chronicler.Answer:Jewish tradition is that Ezra wrote the book of Chronicles (Divrei Hayamim), and its last portion was completed by Nehemiah (Talmud, Bava Bathra 15a). Answer:The author is not stated and is usually referred to as the Chronicler. It is believed that I & II Chronicles were written by Ezra.
God did not curse the mule, He simply told the Israelites that they were not to let their livestock breed with another kind (Leviticus 19:19). Mules were not allowed, but they were used early in the period of the kings (II Samuel 13:29; I Kings 1:33, etc). They were imported from Togarmah (Ezekiel 27:14). The Hebrew term pered undoubtedly refers to the mule.

Samuel L. M. Barlow - II - died in 1982.
The author is not named, but many Jewish and Christian scholars believe that Samuel wrote the first 24 chapters, and Nathan, Gad, or an anonymous author using the records of the three prophets wrote the remainder of I Samuel, and all of II Samuel. There was originally only one Book of Samuel but it was so long that it was difficult to produce on one papyrus scroll, which had practical limitations on length. Eventually Samuel was split into two books, 1 Samuel and 2 Samuel. Samuel can be seen to be very closely integrated with 1 Kings (and then 2 Kings) and has very much the same style, to the point that they would appear to be almost the same book if not separated by their titles. In fact, the Books of Samuel are considered by biblical scholars to be part of the Deuteronomic history, which was written by the anonymous author we now call the Deuteronomist, in the seventh century BCE.
