This Book relates the transactions from the death of Saul until the end of David's reign, being a history for the space of about forty-six years.
2 Kings Chapter 1
David mourneth for the death of Saul and Jonathan: he ordereth the man to be slain who pretended he had killed Saul.
1:1. Now it came to pass, after Saul was dead, that David returned from the slaughter of the Amalecites, and abode two days in Siceleg.
1:2. And on the third day, there appeared a man who came out of Saul's camp, with his garments rent, and dust strewed on his head: and when he came to David, he fell upon his face, and adored.
1:3. And David said to him: From whence comest thou? And he said to him: I am fled out of the camp of Israel.
