Description
Book Three of the “Age of the Kingdom” series picks up where Exile of the King left off.
David is finally king — but civil was divides the kingdom. Treachery and betrayal threaten — but a prophet promises an eternal kingdom.
“Watch biblical history unfold and come alive on the pages of The Eternal Kingdom, Gary Ivey’s highly anticipated third installment in ‘The Age of the Kingdom’ series. Another well researched saga, with wonderful character development. It’s a winner!”
“Reading the Bible is one thing, but there is a lot of ground to cover in very few pages. Gary Ivey’s volumes fill in the gaps between what the Bible covers in ‘shorthand’… A must-read for anyone who wants to bring the Bible to life in the most human way possible.”
After King Saul and three of his sons are killed at the battle of Gilboa, the way seems open for David to assume the throne, but Abner crowns Ish-bosheth, the weak, fourth son of Saul to rule over the tribes north of Judah. When the elders of that tribe crown David king, the stage is set for civil war.
Assassinations and betrayals are the order of the day, finally leading to David becoming king of all Israel, although he is not implicated in any of the treachery.
However, it will be David’s own actions that will prove to be the greatest threat to the kingdom.
