Moses Takes the Advice of Jethro, his Father-In-Law
Among the lesser-known events in the life of Moses and Israel's early history is the counsel given to Moses by his father-in-law, Jethro. It was not as dramatic as the pillar of fire, or other spectacular miracles, but Jethro's advice to Moses was powerfully effective, changing the way God's people governed themselves.

The Kingdom Under Solomon and Others
The events recorded in 1 Kings cover a span of about 120 years of Israel's history. The book is divided into two obvious sections: the unified kingdom under the reign of Solomon recorded in chapters 1-11, and the divided kingdom under the reign of many different kings recorded from chapter 12 to the end of the book.

The Reign of Solomon and the Rise and Fall of Other Kings
Like 1 Chronicles, this book is made up of two distinct sections. The first covers the reign of Solomon, and the second covers the rise and fall of the remaining kings of Judah. Altogether, 2 Chronicles reveals God's heart toward His people: though they were a rebellious nation who continually rejected Him as their King, He still continued to watch over them, and fulfill His plan of redemption through them.

The Ministry of Jesus as the Son of God and Son of Man
The book of Luke, along with the book of Acts which was also written by Luke, makes up nearly a quarter of the New Testament. There are events and information recorded in Luke that are not in any other gospel book. But more importantly, the book of Luke was written from a perspective that is not shared by any other gospel book, as revelation from God and from witnesses rather than from first-hand experience.
