1 Kings 13:34, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
This closing verse is the narrator's verdict on King Jeroboam of Israel, who had set up rival worship at Bethel and Dan and appointed priests from any class of people rather than the Levites. The sin named here is not one act but a settled policy, repeated even after a prophet's sign and a withered hand had shown the LORD's power.
