Ten tribes revolting, kill Hadoram, and make Rehoboam flee Then King Rehoboam sent out Hadoram, who was in charge of the forced labor Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, had recently ascended to the throne of Israel. His decision to send Hadoram, also known as Adoram, reflects his attempt to assert authority over the northern tribes. Hadoram's role as overseer of forced labor connects to the heavy burdens placed on the Israelites during Solomon's reign, which had caused discontent among the people (1 Kings 12:4). This act demonstrates Rehoboam's failure to heed the elders' advice to lighten the people's load, leading to further division. The use of forced labor was common in ancient Near Eastern monarchies, often involving conscripted labor for royal projects. but the Israelites stoned him to death And King Rehoboam mounted his chariot in haste and escaped to Jerusalem Persons / Places / Events 1.

Teaching Points The Consequences of Harsh LeadershipRehoboam's decision to impose heavy burdens on the people led to rebellion and division. Leaders should consider the well-being of those they lead and seek wisdom in their decisions. The Importance of Listening Rehoboam ignored the advice of the elders and chose to listen to his peers, leading to disastrous results. Seeking and heeding wise counsel is crucial in decision-making. The Dangers of Pride and Arrogance Rehoboam's pride and refusal to humble himself before the people's request resulted in the loss of the kingdom. Humility and a servant's heart are essential traits for godly leadership. The Role of God's Sovereignty Despite human failures, God's sovereign plan was at work in the division of the kingdom. Trusting in God's overarching plan can bring peace amidst turmoil. The Power of Rebellion The Israelites' rebellion against unjust leadership serves as a reminder of the power and consequences of collective action. It underscores the need for justice and righteousness in leadership.(18) Hadoram.--Kings, "Adoram." LXX. (Vat.), Adoniram. (Comp. 1Kings 4:6.) The tribute.--The levy (ha-mas). The children of Israel.--Kings, "all Israel." Made speed.--Had made speed. His chariot.--The (royal) chariot. Verse 18. - Hadoram that was over the tribute ... stoned him... Rehoboam made speed... to flee. Hadoram was perhaps the same as Adoniram, son of Abda (1 Kings 4:6; 1 Kings 5:14), but on the arbitrament of age this is less likely, and certainly it is very unlikely that he was one with Hadoram of 2 Samuel 20:24. Rehoboam must be supposed to have sent Hadoram either to make some "tribute" summons, or try some arrangement respecting it, or respecting conciliatory steps. The reception he met warns Rehoboam to make the quickest escape possible, and no doubt opens his eyes fully to what he has done. It was the remanet of his delusive self-confidence to send this collector of taxes to those who had begged some remission of taxation.Parallel Commentaries ...
