Contextual Overview
15 It was in the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Y'hudah that Zimri ruled for seven days in Tirtzah. At that time, the army was besieging Gib'ton, which belonged to the P'lishtim. 16 The troops in their camp heard it said that Zimri had plotted and killed the king, whereupon that same day, there in the camp, all Isra'el made ‘Omri, the commander of the army, king over Isra'el. 17 ‘Omri and all Isra'el with him withdrew from Gib'ton and besieged Tirtzah. 18 When Zimri saw that the city had been captured, he went into the citadel of the royal palace and burned down the royal palace over him, so that he died. 19 This came about because of the sins he committed in doing what was evil from Adonai 's perspective, in living as Yarov‘am had lived, and in sinning by making Isra'el sin. 20 Other activities of Zimri and his conspiracy are recorded in the Annals of the Kings of Isra'el. 21 At this point the people of Isra'el divided into two factions. Half of the people went after Tivni the son of Ginat to make him king, while the other half followed ‘Omri. 22 But the faction supporting ‘Omri won out over that of Tivni the son of Ginat; so Tivni died, and ‘Omri became king. 23 It was in the thirty-first year of Asa king of Y'hudah that ‘Omri began his reign over Isra'el, and he ruled for twelve years, six of them in Tirtzah. 24 He bought Mount Shomron from Shemer for 132 pounds of silver. On the mountain he built a city, which he named Shomron after Shemer, who had owned the mountain.
