Asa king of Judah reigned 41 years during which time Israel had many kings ( Zimri only reigned 7 days) all of them were sinful and Ahab was the worst.
isn't a summary supposed too be a bit longer?
Some summaries might be longer, but these are short ones. I originally wrote them so they would each fit into a single tweet.
I summarised all 1,189 chapters of the Bible on Twitter - one tweet per chapter, one chapter per day for over three years.

These are the summaries of the book of 1 Kings.
They are written to help you understand and remember what's going on in the chapter, but they're no substitute for reading the Bible for yourself.
