EPISODE NOTES

Hello everyone, and welcome back to a new episode of The Bible You Thought You Knew.

Today, we pick up where we left off last week.

If you remember, in the last episode, I started recounting the stories of Israelite kings Rehoboam and Jeroboam.

Both of them played a strategic role in the schism of Israel, with one of them ruling the southern kingdom, Judah, and the other ruling the northern kingdom, Israel.

Today, we continue on with their tale and analyze the aftermath of Rehoboam's actions.

So, if you're curious to know how their story goes, give us a listen!
