1 Reyes 15:19 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 15:19

There is a league between me and thee, and between my
father and thy father
For though Hezion, if he is the same with Rezon, was an adversary to Israel in the days of Solomon, ( 1 Kings 11:25 ) , yet it seems his son was not, but was a confederate with the kings of Israel and Judah:

behold, I have sent unto thee a present of silver and gold;
taken out of the treasury of the temple and his own treasury:

come and break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may
depart from me;
it was sinful in him to take the money out of the temple, to which it was dedicated; it was more so to make use of it to bribe an Heathen to break his covenant and alliance with another, in order to serve him; in which he betrayed great distrust of the Lord, and of his power to help him; which was the more aggravated, when he had had such a wonderful appearance of God for him against the Ethiopians, see ( 2 Chronicles 16:7 2 Chronicles 16:8 ) .

1 Reyes 15:19 In-Context

17 Y Baasa, rey de Israel, subi贸 contra Jud谩 y fortific贸 Ram谩 para prevenir que nadie saliera o entrara en ayuda de Asa, rey de Jud谩.
18 Entonces Asa tom贸 toda la plata y el oro que hab铆a quedado en los tesoros de la casa del SE脩OR y en los tesoros de la casa del rey, y los entreg贸 en manos de sus siervos. Y el rey Asa los envi贸 a Ben-adad, hijo de Tabrim贸n, hijo de Hezi贸n, rey de Aram, que habitaba en Damasco, diciendo:
19 Haya alianza entre t煤 y yo, como hubo entre mi padre y tu padre. He aqu铆, te he enviado un presente de plata y de oro; ve, rompe tu alianza con Baasa, rey de Israel, para que se aparte de m铆.
20 Ben-adad escuch贸 al rey Asa y envi贸 a los jefes de sus ej茅rcitos contra las ciudades de Israel, y conquist贸 Ij贸n, Dan, Abel-bet-maaca, y toda Cineret, adem谩s de toda la tierra de Neftal铆.
21 Y sucedi贸 que cuando Baasa lo oy贸, dej贸 de fortificar Ram谩, y se qued贸 en Tirsa.
