1 KINGS 14:13 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“And all Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him: for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him there is found some good thing toward the Lord God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam.”
Moreover the LORD will raise up for himself a king over Israel who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam today. And what? Even now — Ahijah prophesies that the LORD will appoint a successor king to complete Jeroboam's dynasty's destruction. The phrase וּהְתִּגָּם עַד־הַיּוֹם (even now) suggests fulfillment has begun or will imminently commence. God actively eradicates what He condemns.
