Melachim Alef 14:14

14 Moreover Hashem shall raise Him up a Melech over Yisroel, who shall cut off the Bais Yarov‘am even this day. This is the day! [See 1Kgs 15:27-29.] Even now.

Melachim Alef 14:14 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 14:14

Moreover the Lord shall raise up a king over Israel
Baasha is meant, ( 1 Kings 15:29 )

who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam that day;
immediately, as soon as on the throne, he should destroy his whole family, as he did, ( 1 Kings 15:29 ) ,

but what? even now;
shall it be that day? yes; even at that very time, and which will be very quickly from this time; for as it may be supposed this was said at the latter end of Jeroboam's reign, and his son and successor reigned but two years ere this prophecy was accomplished. The Targum is,

``who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam, him that is living today, and shall be from henceforward.''

Melachim Alef 14:14 In-Context

12 Arise thou therefore, get thee to thine own bais; and when thy raglayim enter into the Ir (city, i.e. Tirtzah), the yeled shall die.
13 And kol Yisroel shall mourn for him, and bury him; for he only of Yarov‘am shall come to the kever (grave), because in him there is found some davar tov (good thing) toward Hashem Elohei Yisroel in the Bais Yarov‘am.
14 Moreover Hashem shall raise Him up a Melech over Yisroel, who shall cut off the Bais Yarov‘am even this day. This is the day! [See 1Kgs 15:27-29.] Even now.
15 For Hashem shall strike Yisroel, just as the kaneh (reed), is shaken in the mayim, and He shall uproot Yisroel out of this adamah hatovah, which He gave to Avoteihem, and shall scatter them beyond the Nahar (River, i.e., the Euphrates) because they have made their Ashera idols, provoking Hashem to anger.
16 And He shall give up Yisroel because of the chattot Yarov‘am, who did sin, and who made Yisroel to sin.
