1 Chronicles 27: Every Year, Every Month, Every Day

Israel had a king. That meant that Israel’s people would have to do the business of a kingdom—every day of every month of every year as long as the kingdom lasted. Twelve divisions of men were appointed to serve the king one month at a time in whatever issues came before them. This was right, fair, and important (vv. 1-15). The author continues with more organizational information in the rest of the chapter. If the people did what God wanted, He would keep blessing them (v. 23). But they did not—and they fell from His grace (1 Corinthians 10:1-12).
