1 KINGS 14:27 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And king Rehoboam made in their stead brasen shields, and committed them unto the hands of the chief of the guard, which kept the door of the king’s house.”
Then King Rehoboam sent Shemaiah the prophet to say, 'Thus says the LORD, You have forsaken me, and I have forsaken you to the hand of Shishak.' — A prophet intervenes at Jerusalem's threat, offering theological interpretation. The phrase עֲזַבְתֶּם אוֹתִי וָאַעְזֹב אֶתְכֶם בְּיַד־שִׁשַׁק (you have forsaken me and I have forsaken you to Shishak) frames invasion as direct consequence of covenant violation.
