1 Kings 11:39 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

For this; for this cause, which I mentioned 1 Kings 11:33. But not for ever; there shall a time come when the seed of David shall not be thus molested by the kingdom of Israel, but that kingdom shall be destroyed, and the kings of the house of David shall be uppermost, as it was in the days of Asa Hezekiah, and Josiah. And at last the Messiah shall come, who shall unite together the broken sticks of Judah and Joseph, and rule over all the Jews and Gentiles too.

1 Kings 11:39

39 And I will for this afflict the seed of David, but not for ever.
