Jewish scholars generally agree that Chronicles was written during the last half of the 5th century before Christ (B.C.). The aim of the record was to ensure the captivity had not destroyed the historical continuity of the nation with Abraham. His covenant with God was the foundation of the Jewish nation. The Chronicles begin with Adam and trace his descendants to Abraham including men like Seth, Enoch, Noah, Shem and fifteen others. Abraham received a covenant from God that the nations from him would be blessed, so lineage from Abraham was critical. 

Christ’s coming fulfilled the Abrahamic covenant and gave to us a greater covenant. 1 John 3 tells us that God’s love has made us His children. That’s worth celebrating.
