Michael Wilcock sees Chronicles as first and foremost a sermon; its object -- to foster a right relationship between God and his people. The Chronicler finds in the records of Israel the "great overall pattern" of God's hand in history. The Lord's constant mercy, love and faithfulness shine through. With great perception, the Chronicler first selects and then proclaims this vibrant pattern, highlighted in the living events of the nations's actual hsitory.Once its purpose is grasped, the book comes alive. It can be seen as nothing less than a final and momentous look back over the entire Old Testament. Viewed in this way, Chronicles has something of the vividness, contrast and drama of the last book of the New Testament, Revelation.Michael Wilcock sees the countless persons named and chronicled as part of one people of the living God.

[When in 1977 I knew that I should soon be leaving the church I had served for some years past, and that it was likely to be without a full-time minister for an unusually long period, I preach a sermon-series which I hoped would be helpful to those who would be leading the church's life and work in that rather novel situation.
The first book of the Chronicles: Adam, Seth, Enosh, Kenan, Mahalalel, Jared ...' What in the world is this?

To know the Chronicler's God is to know the God of all history, who lives and loves today as he always has done, and will do for ever.
[Author's Preface] My prayer is that the Chronicler may e heard by yet another generation of the one church, as he preaches the one faith, to the glory of the one Lord.
[Introduction] Strikingly apt are the well-known lines by the Victorian hymn-writer Edward Hayes Plumptre:
Thy hand, O God, has guided Thy flock from age to age; The wondrous tale is written Full clear on every page; Our fathers owned thy goodness, And we their deeds record; And both of this bear witness, 'One Church, one Faith, one Lord'.
