1 Kings 15:28 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Even, &c. — It was threatened, 1 Kings 14:15, that Israel should be as a reed shaken in the water. And so they were, when, during the single reign of Asa, their government was in seven or eight different hands. Jeroboam was upon the throne at the beginning of his reign, and Ahab at the end of it: between whom were Nadab, Baashah, Elah, Zimri, Tibni, and Omri, undermining and destroying one another. This they got by deserting the house both of God and of David.

1 Kings 15:28

28 Even in the third year of Asa king of Judah did Baasha slay him, and reigned in his stead.
