1 Kings 15:29 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 15:29

And it came to pass, when he reigned, that he smote all the
house of Jeroboam
That he might have no rival, or any that could pretend any title to the crown:

he left not Jeroboam any that breathed, until he had destroyed him,
according to the saying of the Lord, which he spake by his servant
Ahijah the Shilonite;
not that his intention in destroying Jeroboam's family was to fulfil that prophecy, but so it was eventually; see ( 1 Kings 14:10 1 Kings 14:14 ) .

1 Kings 15:29 In-Context

27 Ba'sha the son of Achiyah, from the descendants of Yissakhar, conspired against him; and Ba'sha attacked him at Gib'ton, which belonged to the P'lishtim; for at the time Nadav and all Isra'el were besieging Gib'ton.
28 It was in the third year of Asa king of Y'hudah that Ba'sha killed Nadav and became king in his place.
29 As soon as he had become king he killed off the entire house of Yarov'am, destroying every living soul and leaving not one survivor. This was in keeping with what ADONAI had said through his servant Achiyah from Shiloh;
30 it was the punishment for the sins Yarov'am had committed and through which he had made Isra'el sin, thereby angering ADONAI the God of Isra'el.
31 Other activities of Nadav and all his accomplishments are recorded in the Annals of the Kings of Isra'el.
