The Revolt Against Rehoboam
1 And aRehoboam went to bShechem, for all Israel had gone to Shechem to make him king.
2 So it happened, when aJeroboam the son of Nebat heard it (he was still in bEgypt, for he had fled from the presence of King Solomon and had been dwelling in Egypt ),
3 that they sent and called him. Then Jeroboam and the whole assembly of Israel came and spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
4 “Your father made our ayoke heavy; now therefore, lighten the burdensome service of your father, and his heavy yoke which he put on us, and we will serve you.”
