The best commentaries on Chronicles are by Richard Pratt (Mentor commentaries), and Andrew Hill (NIVAC series). For more technical studies, I would recommend Klein, Knoppers and Dirksen on 1 Chronicles, and Dillard on 2 Chronicles.

Cool. Thanks for the info. I've been leading a Bible study through 1 Chronicles. We just got to David in chapter 2 last week....we started in December of 2006. That is either very commendable, or I need help.

I had the Richard Pratt volume, but I did not think it was very good whenever I referred to it; hence, it has been sold.
