Theological / Devotional

Jeroboam stood. The occasion was one of importance, Jeroboam was officiating as priest at the dedication of the new altar at Bethel, endeavoring to invest it with a sanctity that would win for it the homage and respect of the people, God could not allow the king’s bold defiance to go unrebuked.
