1 Reis 15:27 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 15:27

And Baasha the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar
A man of that tribe; but who he was, or his father, is nowhere else said, very probably an officer in Nadab's army:

conspired against him;
laid a scheme to take away his life, and seize the kingdom:

and Baasha smote him at Gibbethon;
a city in the tribe of Dan, ( Joshua 19:44 )

which belongeth to the Philistines;
it was a city given to the Levites, ( Joshua 21:23 ) and they being driven from it by Jeroboam, the Philistines seized on it, or had heretofore made a conquest of it; and Nadab was desirous of getting it out of their hands, and therefore besieged it, as follows:

for Nadab and all Israel laid siege to Gibbethon;
and while he was besieging it, Baasha took the opportunity to slay him, where his carcass lay exposed to dogs, or fowls of the air, and had no burial, as Ahijah predicted, ( 1 Kings 14:11 1 Kings 14:13 ) .

1 Reis 15:27 In-Context

25 Nadabe, filho de Jeroboão, tornou-se rei de Israel no segundo ano do reinado de Asa, rei de Judá, e reinou dois anos sobre Israel.

26 Fez o que o SENHOR reprova, andando nos caminhos do seu pai e no pecado que ele tinha levado Israel a cometer.

27 Baasa, filho de Aías, da tribo de Issacar, conspirou contra ele, e o matou na cidade filisteia de Gibetom, enquanto Nadabe e todo o exército de Israel a sitiavam.

28 Baasa matou Nadabe no terceiro ano do reinado de Asa, rei de Judá, e foi o seu sucessor.

29 Assim que começou a reinar, matou toda a família de Jeroboão. Dos pertencentes a Jeroboão não deixou ninguém vivo; destruiu todos, de acordo com a palavra do SENHOR anunciada por seu servo, o silonita Aías.
