Great Kings of the Bible: How Jesus is greater than Saul, David, and Solomon is a hardcover book that will teach children about the similarities and differences of Jesus, versus well-known biblical kings of Saul, David, and Solomon.

The three greatest kings of Israel were Saul, David, and Solomon. Saul was the first king of Israel. David led Israel’s army to great victories, and Solomon built a temple for God.

However, many years later a different king would come. This king was born in a stable, not a palace. He served thee sick, the poor, and the needy and was without any sin. This king is Jesus, God’s Son. He is different… His greatest victory was his death on the cross (and resurrection) and because of that God made him, the greatest of all kings, the King of Kings.

In Great Kings of the Bible: How Jesus is greater than Saul, David and Solomon Pastor Reju compares each of these three kings, individually, with Jesus. Saul was a tall man, somewhat a coward who tried to hide when Samuel called the new king. He died because he killed himself after a defeat, and his body was hung on the wall by his enemies. Jesus’ body was hung on the cross by his enemies…

Great Kings of the Bible: How Jesus is greater than Saul, David and Solomon is simply written, skipping most of the details one would read in the Bible or hear in Sunday school with more of a summary. Saul was jealous of David and pursued him for many years is said, instead of going into detail about the different events. David is shown as a mighty warrior, with a wild side, dancing on the streets in abandon, yet beating all the enemies—much as Jesus conquers sin. And Solomon was the wisest king and it compares his wisdom with Jesus.

Great Kings of the Bible: How Jesus is greater than Saul, David and Solomon is a great tool for teaching children the basic information about Saul, David, and Solomon and comparing them to the King of Kings, the Lord Jesus Christ. Excellent for Christian schools, Sunday schools and children’s church, and homeschool parents.
