33 (A)After this event Jeroboam did not turn from his evil way, but again he made priests from every class of people for the high places; whoever wished, he consecrated him, and he became one of the priests of the high places.

26 And Jeroboam said in his heart, “Now the kingdom may return to the house of David: 27 If these people (A)go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the Lord at Jerusalem, then the heart of this people will turn back to their lord, Rehoboam king of Judah, and they will kill me and go back to Rehoboam king of Judah.”

28 Therefore the king asked advice, (B)made two calves of gold, and said to the people, “It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem. (C)Here are your gods, O Israel, which brought you up from the land of Egypt!” 29 And he set up one in (D)Bethel, and the other he put in (E)Dan. 30 Now this thing became (F)a sin, for the people went to worship before the one as far as Dan. 31 He made [a]shrines on the high places, (G)and made priests from every class of people, who were not of the sons of Levi.

32 Jeroboam [b]ordained a feast on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, like (H)the feast that was in Judah, and offered sacrifices on the altar. So he did at Bethel, sacrificing to the calves that he had made. (I)And at Bethel he installed the priests of the high places which he had made. 33 So he made offerings on the altar which he had made at Bethel on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, in the month which he had (J)devised in his own heart. And he [c]ordained a feast for the children of Israel, and offered sacrifices on the altar and (K)burned incense.

  1. 1 Corinthians 1:20 debater

20 And Jehu said, [a]“Proclaim a solemn assembly for Baal.” So they proclaimed it. 21 Then Jehu sent throughout all Israel; and all the worshipers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left who did not come. So they came into the [b]temple of Baal, and the (A)temple of Baal was full from one end to the other. 22 And he said to the one in charge of the wardrobe, “Bring out vestments for all the worshipers of Baal.” So he brought out vestments for them. 23 Then Jehu and Jehonadab the son of Rechab went into the temple of Baal, and said to the worshipers of Baal, “Search and see that no servants of the Lord are here with you, but only the worshipers of Baal.” 24 So they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings. Now Jehu had appointed for himself eighty men on the outside, and had said, “If any of the men whom I have brought into your hands escapes, whoever lets him escape, it shall be (B)his life for the life of the other.”

25 Now it happened, as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, “Go in and kill them; let no one come out!” And they killed them with the edge of the sword; then the guards and the officers threw them out, and went into the [c]inner room of the temple of Baal. 26 And they brought the (C)sacred pillars out of the temple of Baal and burned them. 27 Then they broke down the sacred pillar of Baal, and tore down the [d]temple of Baal and (D)made it a refuse dump to this day. 28 Thus Jehu destroyed Baal from Israel.

29 However Jehu did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin, that is, from (E)the golden calves that were at Bethel and Dan. 30 And the Lord (F)said to Jehu, “Because you have done well in doing what is right in My sight, and have done to the house of Ahab all that was in My heart, (G)your sons shall sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation. 31 But Jehu [e]took no heed to walk in the law of the Lord God of Israel with all his heart; for he did not depart from (H)the sins of Jeroboam, who had made Israel sin.
