The Divorce of David's Kingdom (S&T Course Samples #123)

Because of Solomon's sins, the kingdom was to be torn away from him as the prophet Ahijah foretold. However, this tearing away should be understood as a "divorce" between the Davidic king and the tribes of Israel. This terrible split was brought about by the abusive and violent words of Rehoboam, Solomon's very unwise heir, and won't be remedied until the new son of David, Jesus Christ, comes to heal this deep wound and lovingly bring Israel back to himself. 

Enjoy this sample from Lesson 5, "The Divorce of David's Kingdom (1 Kings 12-16)," from Dr. Nick's course, "1-2 Kings: The Glory and Exile of the Davidic Kingdom."
