1 Kings 16:21
Then were the people of Israel divided into two parts: half of the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king; and half followed Omri.
Then were the people of Israel divided into two parts,.... About the succession in the kingdom:
half the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king: these were the friends of Zimri, or however such who did not like that the army should impose a king upon them; who this Tibni was is not said:
and half followed Omri; the general of the army, perhaps the whole of that.
