15:27-29 Baasha . . . assassinated . . . Nadab and slaughtered all the descendants of . . . Jeroboam, thus terminating Israel’s first dynasty. Baasha’s father was named Ahijah, who is not to be confused with the prophet who predicted the demise of Jeroboam’s dynasty (11:29-39). Baasha’s coup d’etat was the first of several in Israel’s history (e.g., 16:9-10).
