1 Kings 15:30 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 15:30

Because of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and which he
made Israel sin, by his provocation wherewith he provoked the Lord God
of Israel.
] Not that Baasha destroyed the family of Jeroboam because of his sins, which did so much mischief to Israel, and were so provoking to the Lord, from any dislike or hatred of them, for he walked in the same, ( 1 Kings 15:34 ) , but the Lord threatened this by his prophet, and suffered it to be done because of his abominations.
