Chronological Reading Plan for April 26, 1 Chron 6

Today's reading is 1 Chronicles 6. Tomorrow's are Psalms 81, 88, 92, 93. 

Beginning in the last half of 1 Chron 5 and throughout 1 Chron 6, we see a high-priestly genealogy, starting with Aaron. We see a continuous line of High Priests, a lineage of worship leaders and we see the cities in which they dwelt.


So far, we've seen God's provision for a king of Israel. Now we see priests and worshipers as well. None of those offices nor their lineages were broken, even during hardship and captivity. 

God is preparing the way for the One who would be King and High Priest! Through these lineages, Israel will be reminded of God's sovereign plan for them as His chosen people.  Likewise, we are reminded that He reigns over all the events in history, using them to accomplish his purposes.
