Ahab Buried Fathers Lieth Omri Reigned Reigneth Rest Rested Samaria Sama'ria Slept Stead Succeeded
16:28 So Omri slept with his fathers, and was buried in {l} Samaria: and Ahab his son reigned in his stead.
(l) He was the first king that was buried in Samaria, after that the kings house was burnt in Tirzah.
16:15-28 When men forsake God, they will be left to plague one another. Proud aspiring men ruin one another. Omri struggled with Tibni some years. Though we do not always understand the rules by which God governs nations and individuals in his providence, we may learn useful lessons from the history before us. When tyrants succeed each other, and massacres, conspiracies, and civil wars, we may be sure the Lord has a controversy with the people for their sins; they are loudly called to repent and reform. Omri made himself infamous by his wickedness. Many wicked men have been men of might and renown; have built cities, and their names are found in history; but they have no name in the book of life.
