Abraham

Genesis 12:1–3 – God promises land, a great nation, and blessing to all nations through Abraham.

God promises Abraham land, descendants, and blessing.

 

Isaac and Jacob

God repeats His promises to Abraham’s son Isaac.

Isaac’s son Jacob (later named Israel) has 12 sons, who become the 12 tribes of Israel.

Joseph

Joseph is sold into slavery by his brothers.  He rises to power in Egypt and becomes second-in-command. God uses Joseph to save his family from famine.  Jacob’s family moves to Egypt.

Moses

God calls Moses to lead Israel out of Egypt.

The Exodus, Mount Sinai, Wilderness Wandering

 

4. Conquest and Settlement (Joshua)

Joshua

Joshua leads Israel into the Promised Land. Israel defeats many of its enemies but does not fully obey God.  The people settle in the land God promised to Abraham.

 

 

5. The Time of the Judges 

God raises up judges as military and spiritual leaders.

Israel repeatedly falls into a cycle:

1. Sin, 2. Oppression, 3. Cry for help, 4. Deliverance

Judges 21:25 – “Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.”

 

6. The United Kingdom (1 Samuel–1 Kings)

Samuel

Samuel is a prophet and priest. Israel demands a king, rejecting God as their true king.

 

Saul

Israel’s first king.   Starts well but disobeys God.  God removes the kingdom from Saul.

 

David

Defeats Goliath and becomes a great military leader.  Described as “a man after God’s own heart.”  Makes serious mistakes but repents.  God promises David that his kingdom will last forever.

 

Solomon

David’s son.   Asks God for wisdom and becomes famous for it.   Builds the first Temple in Jerusalem.  Later turns away from God due to idolatry and many marriages.

 

 

7. The Divided Kingdom

 

After Solomon’s death, the kingdom splits:

 

Northern Kingdom: Israel

Made up of 10 tribes (including Ephraim and Manasseh, Joseph’s sons).  19 kings — all are considered evil.  Conquered by Assyria in 722 BC.   The people are scattered and Israel ceases to exist as a nation.

 

Southern Kingdom: Judah

 

Made up of Judah and Benjamin.  Jerusalem and the Temple are located here.  20 kings — 8 are considered good.  Conquered by Babylon in 586 BC.

 

The Exile

Jerusalem is destroyed.  The Temple is torn down.  Many leaders and skilled people are taken to Babylon. The poorest people are left behind. The exile is God’s judgment for breaking the covenant.

 

8. Return from Exile (Ezra–Nehemiah)

Persia defeats Babylon and becomes the world power.  Persian kings allow the Jews to return home.  Zerubbabel - Leads the rebuilding of the Temple (the Second Temple). Ezra - Teaches God’s Law and leads spiritual reform. Nehemiah - Rebuilds the walls of Jerusalem.

 

9. Prophets and Hope

Throughout Israel’s history, God sends prophets to call the people to repentance.   Prophets warn of judgment but also promise restoration.  Many prophets speak of a coming Messiah, a future King who will save God’s people.  Eventually, prophetic voices stop.

 

10. Silence and Expectation

There are about 400 years of silence between the Old and New Testaments.  Israel lives under foreign rule and waits for God’s promises to be fulfilled.  The silence ends when John the Baptist appears, preparing the way for Jesus.
