For other uses of "Book{s) of Chronicles" see
Chronicles (disambiguation). The Books of Chronicles (
Hebrew Divrei Hayyamim,
Greek Paraleipomêna) are part of the
Hebrew Bible (Jewish
Tanakh and Christian
Old Testament). In the
masoretic text, it appears as the first or last book of the
Ketuvim (the latter arrangement also making it the final book of the Jewish bible). Chronicles largely parallels the Davidic narratives in the books of Samuel and the Books of Kings. For this reason it was called "Supplements" in the
Septuagint, where it appears in two parts (I & II Chronicles), immediately following 1 & 2 Samuel and 1 & 2 Kings as a supplement to them. The division of Chronicles and its place in the Christian canon of the
Old Testament are based upon the Septuagint.
