Footnotes

  1. 1:1 King David died about 970 BC. A short time before his death, he made Solomon king of all Israel.
  2. 1:1 When we write Lord like this, it is a special name for God. Sometimes people write it as ‘Yahweh’, or as ‘Jehovah’. It is his own name that he told Moses. See Exodus 3:14. It means ‘I am who I am’. This shows that God has always been there and he always will be there.
