2 Samuel for You by Tim Chester is an expository guide outlining the victories, betrayals and reversals of this fascinating period of Israel's history - and the incredible grace and amazing promises of Israel's unchanging God. It is less academic than a commentary, making it a great resource for personal devotion, as well as useful for leading small group studies or sermon preparation. There is an accompanying study available, 2 Samuel: The Fall and Rise of the King (SKU: 982195).
