1 Reyes 12:20

1 Reyes 12:20 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 12:20

And it came to pass, when all Israel heard that Jeroboam was
come again
Out of Egypt; the chief men knew of it before, for he had headed them in their approach and address to Rehoboam; but the people in common had not, and especially those of the various tribes besides that of Ephraim:

22 Pero la palabra de Dios vino a Semaías, hombre de Dios, diciendo:
