The Chronicler summarizes his perspective in 2 Chron. 36.16, saying that Israel rejected ""his prophets"", ""the messengers of God"", and ""his word"" (i.e. Torah). This distinction is reflected in the forms and functions of prophetic speech in the books of Chronicles. Thus, the prophets speak to the king, and the inspired messengers (e.g. priests, levites) speak to the people.
