Melachim Alef 16:22

22 But the people that followed Omri were stronger against the people that followed Tivni Ben Ginat; so Tivni died, and Omri reigned as Melech.

Melachim Alef 16:22 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 16:22

But the people that followed Omri prevailed against the people
that followed Tibni the son of Ginath
Very probably they had a battle, in which the latter were worsted:

so Tibni died;
in the battle:

and Omri reigned;
took possession of the throne, his rival being slain.

Melachim Alef 16:22 In-Context

20 Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his kesher that he plotted, are they not written in the Sefer Divrei HaYamim L’Malkhei Yisroel?

21 Then were HaAm Yisroel divided into two parts: half of the people followed Tivni Ben Ginat, to make him Melech; and half followed Omri.

22 But the people that followed Omri were stronger against the people that followed Tivni Ben Ginat; so Tivni died, and Omri reigned as Melech.

23 In the thirty and first year of Asa Melech Yehudah began Omri to reign as Melech over Yisroel, reigning twelve years; shesh shanim reigned he in Tirtzah.

24 And he bought the Har Shomron from Shemer for two talents of kesef, and built on the hill, and called the shem of the Ir which he built, after the shem of Shemer, adonei hahar (owner of the hill), Shomron.
