==Hebrew Bible Chronologies==
Researchers have developed a great number of chronologies for the Old Testament with various perspectives on the sources. Some of those on the monarchy are:
* The chronology of the kings of Israel and Judah. Gershon Galil. Leiden ; New York : E.J. Brill, 1996. (Galil accepts the synchronisms from the Assyrian Eponym Canon as does Albright, Thiele, and those that built on their work.)
* Secrets of the times : myth and history in biblical chronology. Jeremy Hughes. Sheffield : JSOT Press, ©1990. (Hughes views the majority of the numbers as "myth".)
* W. F. Albright. The Chronology of the Divided Monarchy of Israel. Bulletin of the American Schools of Oriental Research n100 (1945): 16-22. (Albright gives greater weight to numbers in 1-2 Chronicles than Thiele.)
* A new chronology for the kings of Israel and Judah and its implications for Biblical history and literature. John H. Hayes, Paul K. Hooker. Atlanta : John Knox Press, ©1988. (A development of Albright's work.)
* Edwin Richard Thiele. The mysterious numbers of the Hebrew kings. Grand Rapids, MI : Kregel, 1994.
* McFall, Leslie, A Translation Guide to the Chronological Data in Kings and Chronicles, Bibliotheca Sacra 148 (Jan–Mar 1991): 3–45. (A development of Thiele's work.)
* Rodger C. Young. WHEN DID SOLOMON DIE? . . .. Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society 46/4 (December 2003) 589–603 (and other articles he wrote in JETS). (A development of Thiele's work.)
* Andrew. Steinmann. From Abraham to Paul : a biblical chronology. St. Louis, MO : Concordia Pub. House, ©2011. (A development of Thiele's work.)
* Martin Anstey. Chronology of the Old Testament: Complete in One Volume. Kregel publications, 1973 (reprinted. Original; Marshall brothers, 1913). (A development of Ussher.)
* Jack Finegan. Handbook of biblical chronology : principles of time reckoning in the ancient world and problems of chronology in the Bible. Princeton, N.J. : Princeton University Press, 1964.
