First sentence: The Chronicler creates literary or chronological proximity between two unconnected historical events recorded in the earlier text from the books of Samuel and Kings (1); he creates a literary proximity between separate issues (2); finally, he exploits an already-existing literary proximity in the earlier text, transforming it into topical-chronological proximity (3).
