Session 1 · 2 Kings 1–5
A whirlwind, a double portion, and a leper in the Jordan
- Ahaziah inquires of Baal-zebub, Elijah announces his death, and two captains of fifty are consumed before a third asks for mercy.
- Elijah is taken up by a whirlwind in a chariot of fire, Elisha receives the mantle, and the waters of Jericho are healed.
- Jehoram of Israel, Jehoshaphat, and the king of Edom campaign against Mesha of Moab, and Elisha's word fills the valley with water.
- A widow's oil fills many vessels, the Shunammite's son is restored, death is drawn out of the pot, and barley loaves feed a hundred.
- Naaman the Syrian washes seven times in the Jordan and is cleansed, while Gehazi's lie brings that leprosy upon himself.
Session 2 · 2 Kings 6–10
Open eyes, a lifted siege, and a zeal that left the calves
- An axe head floats, horses of fire surround Elisha at Dothan, and blinded Arameans are fed in Samaria instead of being struck down.
- Ben-hadad's siege brings cannibal hunger to Samaria until four lepers find the abandoned camp and the scoffed-at plenty arrives.
- Elisha weeps before Hazael, who will ravage Israel, and the Shunammite's land is restored when she returns from exile.
- Jehu is anointed, kills Joram and Jezebel, and casts the king's body on Naboth's plot as the word had spoken.
- Jehu destroys the worshipers of Baal and burns its pillar, yet he leaves Jeroboam's golden calves standing in Israel.
Session 3 · 2 Kings 11–15
A hidden child, too few arrows, and Assyria's approach
- Athaliah seizes Judah and kills the royal seed, but Jehosheba hides Joash in the house of the Lord until Jehoiada crowns him.
- Joash repairs the temple while Jehoiada lives, then strips its treasuries for Hazael, and his own servants strike him down.
- Jehoahaz entreats the Lord and is given a savior, Elisha dies, and a dead man revives when his body touches the prophet's bones.
- Amaziah defeats Edom, worships their gods, and is beaten by Jehoash of Israel, while Jeroboam the second restores Israel's border.
- Azariah is struck with leprosy, and Pul of Assyria, then Tiglath-pileser, begins to carry the northern tribes away.
Session 4 · 2 Kings 16–20
A copied altar, a fallen Samaria, and a letter spread out
- Ahaz copies a Damascus altar into the temple and rearranges the holy vessels to please the king of Assyria.
- Hoshea is taken, Samaria falls after a three-year siege, and the narrator lists the sins that carried Israel into exile.
- Hezekiah removes the high places and breaks the bronze serpent Nehushtan, yet Sennacherib's Rabshakeh shouts threats at the wall.
- Hezekiah spreads the Assyrian letter before the Lord, Isaiah speaks, and the angel of the Lord strikes the camp so that Sennacherib returns to Nineveh.
- Hezekiah is granted fifteen years, the shadow turns back, and he shows all his treasure to envoys from Babylon.
Session 5 · 2 Kings 21–25
Innocent blood, a book in the temple, and a city in ashes
- Manasseh fills Jerusalem with innocent blood and idols inside the temple, and Kings lets his guilt explain the disaster that is coming.
- Josiah repairs the house, Hilkiah finds the Book of the Law, and Huldah says wrath is certain but the humble king will not see it.
- Josiah covenants with the people, defiles the high places from Geba to Beer-sheba, burns bones on Jeroboam's altar, and keeps a Passover unlike any since the judges.
- Pharaoh Neco kills Josiah at Megiddo, and Nebuchadnezzar later carries Jehoiachin, the treasures, and the skilled people to Babylon.
- The Babylonians burn the temple and break the walls, Gedaliah is murdered, and Evil-merodach lifts Jehoiachin from prison to the king's table.
