Do activity A as you study 2 Chronicles 11:13–17.

  1. Tell Who Is Where and Why

    When Israel split into two nations, we generally say that the tribes of Judah and Benjamin were in the Southern Kingdom, the other ten tribes were in the Northern Kingdom, and the Levites were spread throughout the tribes. But we know from the Book of Mormon that Lehi was not of the tribe of Judah or the tribe of Benjamin, yet he lived in Jerusalem. Read 2 Chronicles 11:13–17 and explain who moved to Jerusalem at the time the kingdoms split and why they moved there.
