Contextual Overview

16 When all the Israelites saw that the new king refused to listen to them, they said to the king, "We have no share in David! We have no part in the son of Jesse! People of Israel, let's go to our own homes! Let David's son rule his own people!" So the Israelites went home. 17 But Rehoboam still ruled over the Israelites who lived in the towns of Judah. 18 Adoniram was in charge of the forced labor. When Rehoboam sent him to the people of Israel, they threw stones at him until he died. But King Rehoboam ran to his chariot and escaped to Jerusalem. 19 Since then, Israel has been against the family of David. 20 When all the Israelites heard that Jeroboam had returned, they called him to a meeting and made him king over all Israel. Only the tribe of Judah continued to follow the family of David. 21 When Rehoboam arrived in Jerusalem, he gathered one hundred eighty thousand of the best soldiers from the tribes of Judah and Benjamin. As son of Solomon, Rehoboam wanted to fight the people of Israel to take back his kingdom. 22 But God spoke his word to Shemaiah, a man of God, saying, 23 "Speak to Solomon's son Rehoboam, the king of Judah, and to all the people of Judah and Benjamin and the rest of the people. Say to them, 24 ‘The Lord says you must not go to war against your brothers, the Israelites. Every one of you should go home, because I made all these things happen.'" So they obeyed the Lord 's command and went home as the Lord had commanded.

Bible Verse Review

Israel: 1 Samuel 10:19, 2 Kings 17:21, 2 Chronicles 10:19, 2 Chronicles 13:5-7, 2 Chronicles 13:17, Isaiah 7:17

rebelled: or, fell away, Hebrews 6:6

unto this day: Joshua 4:9

Reciprocal: 1 Kings 4:1 - over all Israel 2 Chronicles 15:9 - they fell

Gill's Notes on the Bible

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. Their revolt is called a rebellion; for though it was according to the purpose and will of God, yet the people had no command or order from God for it, and was done without consulting him, and was a rejection of their lawful prince.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

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. His source, whatever it was, appears to have been also followed by the writer of Chronicles. (See 2 Chronicles 10:19.)
