Summary of Israel’s History

²¹ When the Lord tore^(A) Israel from the house of David, Israel made Jeroboam son of Nebat king.^(B) Then Jeroboam led Israel away from following the Lord and caused them to commit grave sin. ²² The Israelites persisted in all the sins that Jeroboam committed and did not turn away from them.^{(C) 23} Finally, the Lord removed Israel from his presence just as he had declared through all his servants the prophets. So Israel has been exiled to Assyria from their homeland to this very day.^(D)
