1 Kings 14:12 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 14:12

this is an answer to the question she was to ask, and at the same time a token of the sure and certain fulfilment of all the prophet had spoken in the name of the Lord.

14 constituet autem sibi Dominus regem super Israhel qui percutiat domum Hieroboam in hac die et in hoc tempore
