Well, it looks like the Israelites have found their new king in David! This chapter of 1 Chronicles is all about the way the people of Israel show their love for David, and how he takes charge of the kingdom. You can practically hear the cheering and the “Huzzahs!” as the people of Israel shout: “Long live King David!” The chapter also mentions the names of some of the brave men who helped David take the throne, and it's like a roll call of heroes! But, of course, it's not all about the heroes. There's also a mention of some of David's less-than-heroic moments — like how he burned down an entire city and then charged the people of Israel a tax for it. But hey, I guess you gotta do what you gotta do when you're king, right?
