F I R S T K I N G S CHAP. XVI. This chapter relates wholly to the kingdom of Israel, and the revolutions of that kingdom--many in a little time. The utter ruin of Jeroboam's family, after it had been twenty-four years a royal family, we read of in the foregoing chapter. In this chapter we have, I. The ruin of Baasha's family, after it had been but twenty-six years a royal family, foretold by a prophet ( 1 Kings 16:1-7 ), and executed by Zimri, one of his captains, 1 Kings 16:8-14 . II. The seven days' reign of Zimri, and his sudden fall, 1 Kings 16:15-20 . III. The struggle between Omri and Tibni, and Omri's prevalency, and his reign, 1 Kings 16:21-28 . IV. The beginning of the reign of Ahab, of whom we shall afterwards read much, 1 Kings 16:29-32 . V. The rebuilding of Jericho, 1 Kings 16:34 . All this while, in Judah, things went well. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verses-1-14" class="com-number"
