Read 1 Kings 15.25-32
In 15.25-32: Nadab of Israel.
In verse 25: Nadab marks the end of the royal house of Jeroboam.
In verse 26: His ancestor is literally father, " Jeroboam.
In verse 27: Baasha was an army general who led a government takeover.
In verses 29-30: After assassinating Nadab, Baasha killed all of Jeroboam's male heirs because they were potential rivals for the throne.
This was customary practice for the founders of new royal houses.
Te deuteronomist, however, sees this as punishment for Jeroboam as prophesied by Ahijah (14.7-11).
