Wesley's Notes

10:16 See to thine own house - When public affairs are in a ferment, violent proceedings do but make ill worse. Many have been driven to the mischief they did not intend, by being too severely dealt with.

Scofield Reference Notes

[1] Israel

"Israel," the ten tribes other than Judah and Benjamin, often called "Israel" in distinction from Judah. The division of the kingdom marks an epoch of great importance in the history of the nation. Henceforth it is "a kingdom divided against itself." Mt 12:25. The two kingdoms are to be reunited in the future kingdom. Isa 11:10-13 Jer 23:5,6 Ezek 37:15-28. See "Kingdom" (O.T.), See Scofield Note: "Gen 1:26" See Scofield Note: "Zech 12:8". (N.T.), Lk 1:31 1Cor 15:28. "Israel," Gen 12:2,3 Rom 11:26.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

10:1-19 The ten tribes revolt from Rehoboam. - Moderate counsels are wisest and best. Gentleness will do what violence will not do. Most people like to be accosted mildly. Good words cost only a little self-denial, yet they purchase great things. No more needs to be done to ruin men, than to leave them to their own pride and passion. Thus, whatever are the devices of men, God is doing his own work by all, and fulfilling the word which he has spoken. No man can bequeath his prosperity to his heirs any more than his wisdom; though our children will generally be affected by our conduct, whether good or bad. Let us then seek those good things which will be our own for ever; and crave the blessing of God upon our posterity, in preference to wealth or worldly exaltation.


2 Samuel 20:1 Now a worthless fellow happened to be there whose name was Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite; and he blew the trumpet and said, "We have no portion in David, Nor do we have inheritance in the son of Jesse; Every man to his tents, O Israel!"
2 Chronicles 10:19 So Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David to this day. (NASB ©1995)
