1 Kings 16:3 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 16:3

Behold, I will take away the posterity of Baasha, and the
posterity of his house
By death, there shall be none of his family remaining in any branch of it:

and I will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat;
execute the same judgment on it, and in the same manner, their sins being alike.

1 Kings 16:3 In-Context

1 The word of God came to Jehu son of Hanani with this message for Baasha:

2 "I took you from nothing - a complete nobody - and set you up as the leader of my people Israel, but you plodded along in the rut of Jeroboam, making my people Israel sin and making me seethe over their sin.

3 And now the consequences - I will burn Baasha and his regime to cinders, the identical fate of Jeroboam son of Nebat.

4 Baasha's people who die in the city will be eaten by scavenger dogs; carrion crows will eat the ones who die in the country."

5 The rest of Baasha's life, the record of his regime, is written in The Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
