This phrase indicates the death of Jeroboam II, who was the king of Israel. The expression "rested with his fathers" is a common biblical euphemism for death, suggesting a peaceful passing and burial with ancestors. Jeroboam II's reign was marked by military success and territorial expansion, as recorded in 2 Kings 14:23-28. His rule brought a period of prosperity to Israel, though it was also a time of spiritual decline, as the people continued in the sins of Jeroboam I, who led Israel into idolatry (1 Kings 12:28-30). The mention of "the kings of Israel" places Jeroboam II within the northern kingdom's lineage, distinct from the southern kingdom of Judah. This distinction is crucial in understanding the divided monarchy period in Israel's history, which began after Solomon's reign. And his son Zechariah reigned in his place. Persons / Places / Events 1. Jeroboam IIHe was the king of Israel who reigned for 41 years. His reign was marked by military success and territorial expansion, but also by spiritual decline and idolatry. 2. Zechariah The son of Jeroboam II, who succeeded him as king. His reign was short and marked the end of the Jehu dynasty as prophesied by God. 3. Israel The northern kingdom, distinct from Judah, often characterized by its departure from the worship of Yahweh and its political instability. 4. Rested with his fathers A phrase indicating that Jeroboam II died and was buried, joining his ancestors in death. 5. Kings of Israel Refers to the lineage of rulers over the northern kingdom, often noted for their failure to lead the people in faithful worship of God. Teaching Points The Temporary Nature of Earthly PowerJeroboam's death and the succession of Zechariah remind us that earthly power and dynasties are temporary. Our focus should be on eternal values and God's kingdom. The Consequences of Spiritual Decline Despite Jeroboam II's political success, his reign was spiritually bankrupt. This serves as a warning that material success without spiritual integrity leads to downfall. God's Faithfulness to His Word The transition from Jeroboam to Zechariah fulfills God's promise to Jehu. This demonstrates God's faithfulness and the certainty of His word, encouraging us to trust in His promises. Leadership and Legacy The legacy of Jeroboam II was one of idolatry and spiritual decline. As leaders in our families, communities, or workplaces, we should strive to leave a legacy of faithfulness to God.Verse 29. - And Jeroboam slept with his fathers, oven with the kings of Israel - his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather had been actually among the kings of Israel; but all the kings, his predecessors, were probably reckoned among his ancestors - and Zachariah his son reigned in his stead (see the comment on 2 Kings 15:8). By Zachariah's accession the promise given to Jehu (2 Kings 10:30), that his "children to the fourth generation should sit on the throne of Israel," was literally fulfilled. No other royal house occupied the Israelitish throne for more than three generations.
