Berean Study Bible

As for the rest of the acts of Nadab
This phrase introduces the reader to the broader narrative of Nadab's reign. The Hebrew word for "acts" is "דְּבָרִים" (devarim), which can also mean "words" or "matters." This suggests that the chronicler is referring to the entirety of Nadab's deeds and decisions, not just isolated events. Nadab, the son of Jeroboam, reigned over Israel for a brief period, and his acts are part of the larger tapestry of Israel's history. His reign is marked by continuity in the sins of his father, which led Israel further away from God.

along with all that he did
This phrase emphasizes the comprehensive nature of the record. The Hebrew word "כָּל" (kol) means "all" or "every," indicating that nothing significant was omitted from the historical account. This reflects the biblical principle that God is aware of all human actions and that they are recorded in His sight. Nadab's actions, though not extensively detailed in the biblical text, contributed to the spiritual and political climate of Israel.

are they not written
This rhetorical question underscores the existence of other historical records outside the biblical narrative. The phrase suggests that the reader can verify the account by consulting these records. It reflects the ancient Near Eastern practice of maintaining royal annals and chronicles, which were used to document the reigns of kings and significant events. This practice highlights the importance of historical documentation and accountability.

in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
The "Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel" is a non-canonical source that is frequently referenced in the biblical text. It served as an official record of the reigns of the kings of Israel, similar to the annals of other ancient kingdoms. While this book has not survived to the present day, its mention indicates that the biblical authors had access to detailed historical records. This reference assures the reader of the reliability and historical grounding of the biblical narrative. The chronicler's use of this source reflects a commitment to truth and accuracy, reinforcing the divine inspiration and authority of Scripture.
