Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then were the people of Israel divided into two parts,.... About the succession in the kingdom:

half the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king: these were the friends of Zimri, or however such who did not like that the army should impose a king upon them; who this Tibni was is not said:

and half followed Omri; the general of the army, perhaps the whole of that.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 16:21. Divided into two parts — Why this division took place we cannot tell; the people appear to have been for Tibni, the army for Omri; and the latter prevailed.
