And this thing became sin unto the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off, and to destroy it from off the face of the earth.

Verse 34 is found in chapter 13 of 1 Kings. Jeroboam does not abandon his ways and continues appointing priests for the high places. The narrator concludes that this practice became sin for his house and ultimately brought about its destruction. The king’s persistence demonstrates that a miraculous sign does not guarantee repentance. The fundamental problem was not a lack of evidence, but a continued decision to maintain a religious system contrary to the received word.
