SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:8
y rompí el reino de la casa de David, y te lo entregué a ti; y tú no has sido como David mi siervo, que guardó mis mandamientos y anduvo en pos de mí con todo su corazón, haciendo solamente lo derecho delante de mis ojos;
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 14:8
Verse 8. And rent the kingdom away from the house of David] That is, permitted it to be rent, because of the folly and insolence of Rehoboam.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 8. And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it thee , etc.] Even ten parts out of twelve: and yet thou hast not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in mine eyes ; who never was guilty of idolatry, but always constantly and cordially attended the pure worship of God, and was careful to do everything in that according to the will of God, whatever else he might be deficient in.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 7-20 - Whether we keep an account of God's mercies to us or not, he does; an he will set them in order before us, if we are ungrateful, to ou greater confusion. Ahijah foretells the speedy death of the child the sick, in mercy to him. He only in the house of Jeroboam had affectio for the true worship of God, and disliked the worship of the calves. To show the power and sovereignty of his grace, God saves some out of the worst families, in whom there is some good thing towards the Lord God of Israel. The righteous are removed from the evil to come in thi world, to the good to come in a better world. It is often a bad sig for a family, when the best in it are buried out of it. Yet their deat never can be a loss to themselves. It was a present affliction to the family and kingdom, by which both ought to have been instructed. God also tells the judgments which should come upon the people of Israel for conforming to the worship Jeroboam established. After they left the house of David, the government never continued long in one family, but one undermined and destroyed another. Families and kingdoms are ruine by sin. If great men do wickedly, they draw many others, both into the guilt and punishment. The condemnation of those will be severest, wh must answer, not only for their own sins, but for sins others have bee drawn into, and kept in, by them.
