1 Kings 12:19 Summary

[This verse tells us that the nation of Israel rebelled against the leadership of King Rehoboam, who was a descendant of King David, and this rebellion has continued to this day. This means that the nation of Israel was divided, with some people following King Rehoboam and others following Jeroboam, as seen in 1 Kings 12:20. This division was a result of the people's disobedience and lack of faith, as seen in 1 Kings 11:1-13, and it had serious consequences, as seen in 1 Kings 12:21-24 and 2 Chronicles 11:1-4. Just like the Israelites, we can learn from this verse to be careful not to rebel against God's authority in our own lives, and to trust in His plan, as seen in Proverbs 3:5-6 and Romans 11:25-32.]

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean for Israel to be in rebellion against the house of David?

This means that the nation of Israel rejected the leadership of King Rehoboam, a descendant of David, and instead followed Jeroboam as their king, as seen in 1 Kings 12:20, which was a fulfillment of the prophecy given in 1 Kings 11:31-32.

How long did this rebellion last?

According to 1 Kings 12:19, this rebellion has continued to this day, indicating a long-lasting division between the kingdoms of Israel and Judah, which was also prophesied in 1 Kings 11:35-36.

What was the cause of this rebellion?

The rebellion was sparked by King Rehoboam's refusal to lighten the burden of forced labor imposed by his father, Solomon, as seen in 1 Kings 12:1-15, and was further fueled by the actions of Jeroboam, who had been appointed by Solomon to oversee the forced labor, as mentioned in 1 Kings 11:28.

How does this verse relate to the rest of the Bible?

This verse is part of a larger narrative about the division of the kingdom of Israel, which is also discussed in 2 Chronicles 10:1-19 and 2 Chronicles 11:1-4, and has implications for the rest of the Old Testament, including the prophetic books that speak of the restoration of Israel, such as Ezekiel 37:21-22.

Gill's Exposition on 1 Kings 12:19

So Israel rebelled against the house of David unto this day. In which the writer of this book lived, and so continued until their captivity by the king of Assyria.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 1 Kings 12:19

So when all Israel saw that the king hearkened not unto them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David?

Matthew Poole's Commentary on 1 Kings 12:19

Their revolt is called rebellion, and therefore was sinful, because it was contrary to God’ s authority, and command of subjection to David, and his seed for ever; from which the people were not freed by God’ s promise and grant made to Jeroboam, which was but a secret transaction, not yet sufficiently revealed to them, and was not a grant of present and actual possession; but only a promise that God would give it to him in his own time and way, which might have been done, though neither Jeroboam nor the people had used these indirect and evil courses to bring it about, as it befell David upon the same occasion. Besides, the people did not this in compliance with God’ s counsel, but to gratify their own passions, and get themselves a little ease.

Trapp's Commentary on 1 Kings 12:19

1 Kings 12:19 So Israel rebelled against the house of David unto this day.Ver. 19. So Israel rebelled.] Rebellion it was in them, and no better: though nothing was therein done, but by the determinate counsel of God, and as he had foretold. Against the house of David.] Ill accidents ever attend such princes, as being absolute in power, - so they will needs have it, - will be too resolute in will and dissolute in life.

Ellicott's Commentary on 1 Kings 12:19

(19) Unto this day.—The phrase argues the incorporation into the narrative of an older document.

Cambridge Bible on 1 Kings 12:19

19. unto this day] This phrase occurring several times in the book marks the original composition, from which the compiler of the Kings drew his material, as written while the two kingdoms were still existent, and under different rulers.

Barnes' Notes on 1 Kings 12:19

Unto this day - This expression shows that the writer, who lived during the captivity, and consequently long after the rebellion of Israel had come to an end, is embodying in his history the exact words of an ancient document.
