Overview

Excerpt from The Bible and Its Story, Vol. 17: Taught by One Thousand Picture Lessons Before the coming Of Christ, the Jewish priesthood had already divided their sacred books, that is, the books of the Old Testament, into three classes. First came the Law, the five books of Moses, the most venerated Of all. Then came the Prophets, and then the Hagiographa or holy writings, such as Psalms and Proverbs. The books Of the prophets were divided into the Former Prophets and the Latter Prophets. The historical books from Joshua through II Kings formed the Former Prophets. With these were later included the other historical books that immediately follow there in the modern arrangement Of the Bible, from Chronicles through Esther and this entire group are now usually called the Historical Books, though no such division is adopted in the Hebrew Bible.
