Read 1 Kings 12 in full →Israel Rebels Against Judah
16Then all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them. So the people responded to the king with this word, saying, “What portion do we have in David?We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse;aTo your tents, O Israel!Now see to your own house, David!” So Israel went to their tents.17But aas for the sons of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them. 18Then King Rehoboam sent aAdoram, who was over the forced labor, and all Israel 1stoned him and he died. And King Rehoboam made haste to mount his chariot to flee to Jerusalem. 19aSo Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David to this day.
20Now it happened when all Israel heard that Jeroboam had returned, that they sent and called him to the congregation and made him king over all Israel. aNone but the tribe of Judah followed the house of David.
