The first three kings of Israel were Saul, David and then Solomon. After Solomon the kingdom was divided into two parts and separate kings ruled over Judah and over Israel. The reigns of these kings are described in the books of Kings and Chronicles in a very interesting way: The reign of each king is given by the length of the reign and by the beginning of the reign as it compares to the regnal year of the ruling king in the opposite kingdom. The years do not add up at first sight, but if we accept the existence of the following three scenarios, then we can resolve the "problems": Reigns can overlap Sons can have co-regencies with their father The length of the reign can be counted from the beginning of the first official year or from the start of the co-regency The table below shows the kings of Judah and Israel with the corresponding verses of the Bible which were used to construct it. After the name of the kings the number in parenthesis is the length of their reign. Each row of the table during the divided kingdom represents the events that took place in the same year and shows the current regnal year of the kings.
