1 Kings 12:6

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Speak unto Rehoboam the son of Solomon king of Judah,.... He is called king before, but of what tribe or tribes is not expressly said, only it is implied in 1 Kings 12:17 and he is only acknowledged king of Judah by the Lord himself:

and unto all the house of Judah and Benjamin; which made but one house, as before but one tribe, 1 Kings 11:36

and to the remnant of the people; of the other tribes that might dwell among them at Jerusalem, and especially Simeon, whose inheritance was within the tribe of Judah, Joshua 19:1

saying: as follows.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The remnant - i. e., “the children of Israel which dwelt in the cities of Judah” (1 Kings 12:17 note).
