And it came to pass, when Zimri saw that the city was taken, that he went into the palace of the king's house, and burnt the king's house over him with fire, and died.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 18 is found in chapter 16 of 1 Kings. Zimri reigns for only seven days before the army proclaims Omri king. When he learns that Tirzah has been taken, Zimri burns the palace over himself and dies. His extremely brief reign demonstrates the speed with which political crises unfold in Israel. The northern throne lacks the dynastic stability that characterizes the account of Judah.
