The Books of 1 and 2 Samuel were originally written as a single book, the Book of Samuel, part of what is now known as the Deuteronomic History, during the seventh-century-BCE reign of King Josiah. The Book of Samuelwas eventually split into two, to make it easier to fit onto a single papyrus scroll.
Samuel was written during the seventh-century-BCE reign of King Josiah, partly as a politial document, for the people of the remaining small kingdom of Judah.
The book of 1 Samuel was written for the Israelites, particularly to highlight the transition from the judges to a monarchy in Israel. It serves to preserve the history and spiritual lessons of this period for future generations.
The Books of 1 and 2 Samuel were originally written as part of the Hebrew Bible, or Tanakh, in Hebrew. They are considered historical and prophetic books, detailing the transition of Israel from a group of tribes to a unified kingdom under King David.
The books of 1 and 2 Samuel are traditionally attributed to the prophet Samuel, who plays a prominent role in the beginning of the narrative. However, the books were likely compiled and edited by multiple authors over time, drawing on various sources and traditions.
Three characters in 1 Samuel are Samuel, Saul, and David. Samuel was a prophet and judge, Saul was the first king of Israel, and David was chosen by God to succeed Saul as king.
The prophet Samuel anointed David as king of Israel.

A:We do not know exactly where 1 and 2 Chronicles were written, but we do know they were written during or, more likely, just after the Babylonian Exile. If they were written during the Exile, then they were written in or near Babylon. Otherwise, they were written in the city of Jerusalem.
