Abijam succeeds Rehoboam And the length of Jeroboam’s reign was twenty-two years Jeroboam's reign over the northern kingdom of Israel lasted for twenty-two years, a significant period that marked the establishment of the divided monarchy after the united kingdom under Solomon. His reign began around 931 BC, following the division of the kingdom due to Solomon's idolatry and heavy taxation. Jeroboam was initially promised a lasting dynasty by the prophet Ahijah if he obeyed God's commands (1 Kings 11:38). However, his reign was characterized by idolatry, as he set up golden calves in Bethel and Dan to prevent the Israelites from worshiping in Jerusalem (1 Kings 12:28-30). This act of apostasy set a precedent for future kings of Israel and led to the eventual downfall of the northern kingdom. and he rested with his fathers and his son Nadab reigned in his place Persons / Places / Events 1.

Teaching Points The Consequences of IdolatryJeroboam's reign is a cautionary tale about the dangers of leading others into idolatry. His actions had long-lasting effects on Israel, leading them away from God. Leadership and Legacy The legacy we leave is often shaped by our actions and decisions. Jeroboam's choice to prioritize political stability over spiritual fidelity had negative repercussions for generations. The Importance of Faithfulness Despite the political pressures, remaining faithful to God's commands is crucial. Jeroboam's failure to do so serves as a warning to prioritize spiritual integrity over expediency. The Cycle of Sin Jeroboam's idolatry set a precedent for future kings of Israel, illustrating how sin can perpetuate through generations if not addressed.Verse 20. - And the days which Jeroboam reigned were two and twenty years [Bahr remarks that the exploits of this long reign find no mention in Scripture; the historian dwells exclusively on the sin, the consequences of which were of so much greater moment]: and he slept with his fathers [Jeroboam's end would appear to have been untimely. After his defeat by Abijah, we are told, "the Lord struck him, and he died," which may either mean that he died by a lingering disease (2 Chronicles 21:18, 19) or more suddenly (2 Samuel 12:15), but which certainly implies that he died "by the visitation of God." I have suggested elsewhere (Homil. Quart. IV., p. 257) that the "stroke" was not improbably his son's death, which was at once so tragical and such a bitter foretaste of judgment to come. He may have "warred and reigned" (ver. 19) after this event. He may also have steadily drooped to his grave], and Nadab his son reigned in his stead. CHAPTER 14:21-31.
