This course is a series of Bible lessons on the Old Testament designed for older (middle school) children. Each lesson is about 20 minutes in length. The video portion of each lesson is accompanied by a Lesson Guide containing quizzes and test questions. The Lesson Guide is available in pdf format and can be downloaded or printed out for the student to complete in class. This course is very well suited for both home schools and private Christian schools worldwide, though it is primarily designed for use in a group setting. Parents and teachers can provide additional guidance to supplement these lessons and Bible knowledge tests, if desired.
In lesson 62, we told you a little bit about the time when David numbered the people and 70,000 people died. Here in I Chronicles 21, we have more details about what happened. Satan had stirred up pride in David’s heart, and he wanted to know just how large his kingdom was, so he told Joab to number Israel. This was wrong, because it was God who gave the increase, and that should have humbled David.
