1 Reyes 13:33 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 13:33

After this thing Jeroboam returned not from his evil way

but made again of the lowest of the people priests of the high places:
and officiated there, and indeed those of the tribe of Levi would not serve there, and therefore were expelled their cities; see ( 2 Chronicles 11:14 ) .
