1 Kings ; Chapter 14 Verse 17-18
17 Then Jeroboam’s wife got up and left and went to Tirzah. As soon as she stepped over the threshold of the house, the boy died. 18 They buried him, and all Israel mourned for him, as the Lord had said through his servant the prophet Ahijah.
7 یُربعام کی بیوی ترضہ واپس گئی جیسے ہی وہ گھر گئی لڑ کا مر گیا۔ 18 سب اسرائیلیوں نے اس کو دفن کیا اور اس کے لئے روئے۔ یہ بالکل ویسا ہی ہوا جیسا کہ خدا وند نے کہا تھا۔ خدا وند نے اپنے خادم اخیاہ نبی کو یہ باتیں کہنے کے لئے استعمال کیا۔
My point of view about above verses
God told Ahijah that wife of King Jeroboam is coming to you to ask about her son who is sick – when she arrives she will pretend to be someone else
When she arrives to Ahijah he said come king’s wife why you are pretending – there is message for you from God, go and tell Jeroboam that I have raised you up to rule my people Israel but you are not as faithful as my servant David was – you have done more evil than all who lived before you- you have made for yourselves gods of metal and aroused my anger
So I the Lord will bring disaster on Jeroboam house- I will cut all last male in Israel of Jeroboam house- and burn his house as one burns dung – Dogs will eat those from his family who die in city and birds will feed on those who die in country
God told only person in Jerobum family who will get burial is this boy as God found anything good in him
God will destroy Jerobum family as they caused Israel to sin by making Asherah poles- He will scatter them beyond Euphrates river from this good land as they aroused the Lord’s anger
All people mourned for Jeroboam’s son when he died as Lord told through his servant prophet Ahijah
God gets angry if we do things which He detests / hates
May God give us wisdom to understand Him through His Word as He speaks with us through this - and apply it in our lives to have a blissful life on earth
