Rehoboam, forsaking the Lord, is punished by Shishak5. He and the princes, repenting at the preaching of Shemaiah, 7. are delivered from destruction, but not from spoil 13. The reign and death of Rehoboam When the LORD saw that they had humbled themselves, Rehoboam, the leaders of Judah, and the people responded to Shemaiah’s warning by acknowledging their sin and submitting to God’s judgment. Humility before the Lord marks a turning from self-reliance and rebellion to dependence upon His mercy. God consistently receives those who repent sincerely, as He promised in 2 Chronicles 7:14 and as James later affirmed: “Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will exalt you.” 2Ki 22:19 because your heart was tender and you humbled yourself… the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah, saying, Shemaiah served as God’s messenger during Rehoboam’s reign, speaking divine truth into a national crisis.

Prophetic revelation exposed sin, called the nation to repentance, and announced God’s response to their changed posture. 2Ch 11:2-4 But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God:… “They have humbled themselves; I will not destroy them, God’s judgment was righteous, yet His mercy restrained the full destruction Judah deserved.

Shishak, king of Egypt, invaded Judah around 925 B.C., an event supported by his victory inscription at Karnak. Egypt became an instrument of divine discipline, but not of total annihilation. Judah would become subject to Shishak and learn the painful difference between serving the Lord and serving earthly kings. God’s restraint also points beyond Judah’s temporary rescue to the greater deliverance from wrath provided through Jesus Christ. 1Ki 14:25-28 In the fifth year of Rehoboam’s reign, Shishak king of Egypt… Persons / Places / Events 1.

Teaching Points The Power of HumilityHumility before God can change the course of events. When we humble ourselves, we open the door for God's mercy and intervention in our lives. God's Responsive Nature God is attentive to the state of our hearts. He responds to genuine repentance and humility with grace and deliverance. Consequences of Sin and Repentance While sin has consequences, repentance can mitigate these effects. God may allow some consequences to remain as a reminder, but He also provides a path to restoration. The Role of Prophets Prophets like Shemaiah play a crucial role in communicating God's will and guidance. We should be attentive to God's messages through His Word and His messengers. Divine Mercy Over Judgment God's preference is to show mercy rather than execute judgment. His desire is for His people to turn back to Him and receive His grace. Bible Study Questions and Answers 1.

That they had humbled themselves • Rehoboam and Judah admitted their sin (2 Chronicles 12:6). • Genuine humility means recognizing God’s right to judge and our need for mercy (James 4:6, 10). • God consistently favors the humble over the proud (Isaiah 66:2; 1 Peter 5:5-6). The word of the LORD came to Shemaiah • God speaks through His prophet, confirming that repentance has been noticed (2 Chronicles 11:2). • Prophetic revelation aligns with God’s covenant promises (Amos 3:7). • The message is immediate, showing God’s eagerness to restore (Isaiah 65:24).

When Judah bowed under His hand, He saw, spoke, withheld complete destruction, promised immediate relief, and limited the enemy’s impact. The verse underscores a timeless truth: humble repentance moves God to exchange wrath for mercy while still preserving the disciplining purpose of His justice. (7) But I will grant them some deliverance.—Rather, and I will give them a few for a remnant. (Comp. 2Chronicles 12:12, “that he would not destroy him altogether.”) For the phrase “to give a remnant,” see Ezra 9:13. The word rendered “few” is kim‘at. (Comp. 1Chronicles 16:19 : Isaiah 1:9.) The pointing kim‘āt is peculiar to this passage.My wrath shall not be poured out.—Or, pour itself out, wreak itself. The phrase denotes a judgment of extermination. (Comp. its use in 2Chronicles 34:25.) ... Verse 7. - Some deliverance. The Hebrew for "some" here is כִּמְעַט. There is plain authority (Ruth 2:7; Psalm 38:10) for translating this word as of time, and the rendering "a little while" of the margin, will, therefore, seem preferable. But see next note, and the" altogether" of ver. 12. It has often been most justly remarked what grateful note should be taken of the fact that God always is recorded as turning such a wistful, loving eye to any symptom of repentance (1 Kings 21:27-29; Jonah 2:5-9). Who can estimate the loss of men, that the symptoms have been so frequent, so comparatively easily found as compared with the reality of lastingness?Parallel Commentaries ...
