1 Kings 16:2 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Kings 16:2

1 Then the word of the Lord came to ^aJehu the son of ^bHanani, against ^cBaasha, saying:

2 ^a“Inasmuch as I lifted you out of the dust and made you ruler over My people Israel, and ^byou have walked in the way of Jeroboam, and have made My people Israel sin, to provoke Me to anger with their sins,

3 surely I will ^atake away the posterity of Baasha and the posterity of his house, and I will make your house like ^bthe house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

4 The dogs shall eat ^awhoever belongs to Baasha and dies in the city, and the birds of the air shall eat whoever dies in the fields.”

5 Now the rest of the acts of Baasha, what he did, and his might, ^aare they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

6 So Baasha rested with his fathers and was buried in ^aTirzah. Then Elah his son reigned in his place.
