Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Tirzah: Tirzah was a city of Ephraim, to which tribe Jeroboam belonged; and appears to have been pleasantly situated, as it is said in Song of Solomon 6:4, "Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah," though its precise situation cannot now be ascertained. It seems to have been the royal city, and the seat of government for a long time after the revolt of the ten tribes, till Omri built Samaria. 1 Kings 15:21, 1 Kings 15:33, 1 Kings 16:6, 1 Kings 16:8, 1 Kings 16:9, 1 Kings 16:15, 1 Kings 16:23, Joshua 12:24, Song of Solomon 6:4

when she came: 1 Kings 14:12, 1 Kings 14:13, 1 Samuel 2:20-34, 1 Samuel 4:18-20

Reciprocal: 2 Kings 15:14 - Tirzah

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Jeroboam's wife arose, and departed, e.] Upon this speech of the prophet's to her:

and came to Tirzah where Jeroboam now had his court, and where their son now was; it was a royal city in the time of the Canaanites, and is commonly placed in the tribe of Manasseh, and was a very pleasant one, as its name signifies, to which there is an allusion, Song of Solomon 6:4,

Song of Solomon 6:4- :,

and when she came to the threshold of the door, the child died: just as she was about to step over the threshold of the royal palace, which seems to have been at the entering of the city of Tirzah, 1 Kings 14:12.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Jeroboam had by this time removed from Shechem, and established a new capital in Tirzah, one of the old Canaanite towns Joshua 12:24 - a town of great reputation for beauty, counted in that respect on a par with Jerusalem Song of Solomon 6:4. Tirzah is perhaps to be identified with “Telluzah,” a place in the mountains about 9 miles distant from Shechem (Nablous) (or with Teiasir - Conder). It may have been the palatial residence of the kings rather than the actual capital of the country. It remained the capital until Omri built Samaria 1 Kings 16:23-24. Toward the close of the kingdom it appears again as the city of Menahem, who murdered Shallum and succeeded him 2 Kings 15:14.

The threshold of the door - literally,” the threshold of the house.” Compare the prophecy 1 Kings 14:12. The child actually died as she crossed the threshold of the palace. Probably the palace, like that of Sargon at Khorsabad, lay at the outer edge of the town.
