20/ Who was Rehoboam ?Rehoboam ~The son of Solomon by Naamah

22/ Why did Isreal split into two separate kingdoms ?
Jeroboam ~The son of Nebat from Zereda in Manasseh, who became the first king of the ten tribes of Israel. He will forever be known as the man who made Israel to sin.
ultimately, Israel split into 2 kingdoms as judgement from God for Israel forsaking God....it played out through Jeroboam and Rehoboam's son, after the death of Solomon.

NEW QUESTION
29/ What did Jehoshaphat do at the start of his reign to try to please God ?
30/ Who was Ahab ?
31/ Why did Jehoshaphat start an unnecessary war with Syria ?
Ahab was a wicked king of Israel.
Jehoshaphat listened to Ahab, rather than God, and agreed to go to war with Syria.
2 Chronicles 17:
3 And the Lord was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the first ways of his father David, and sought not unto Baalim;
4 But sought to the Lord God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel.
5 Therefore the Lord stablished the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah brought to Jehoshaphat presents; and he had riches and honour in abundance.
6 And his heart was lifted up in the ways of the Lord: moreover he took away the high places and groves out of Judah.
his heart was lifted up ~i'm taking this to mean that He REJOICED in God and LOVED Him.
Precious.
32/ How did King Ahab die ?
33/ Why was God angry that Jehoshaphat had helped King Ahab ?
it was tragic....a random arrow found its way to a vulnerable gap in Ahab'a armor and found its mark, killing him.
because Jehoshaphat didn't give heed to God's prophet, ignoring him, and STILL aligned with Ahab in a war that was without cause.

37/ Why was God angry with Jehoram ?
38/ How did Jehoram die ?
Jehoram was Jehoshaphat's oldest son who reigned after his death
Jehoram did not walk in righteousness as his father did, he killed all his brothers in cold blood, married the daughter of wicked Ahab, and made his people sin abominably.
Jehoram died of a horrible and incurable disease...his bowels fell out and he died like that...
