  • 1 Kgs 12:16-20 : 16 So{H7725}{(H8686)} when all Israel{H3478} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} that the king{H4428} hearkened{H8085}{(H8804)} not unto them, the people{H5971} answered{H1697} the king{H4428}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, What portion{H2506} have we in David{H1732}? neither have we inheritance{H5159} in the son{H1121} of Jesse{H3448}: to your tents{H168}, O Israel{H3478}: now see{H7200}{(H8798)} to thine own house{H1004}, David{H1732}. So Israel{H3478} departed{H3212}{(H8799)} unto their tents{H168}. 17 But as for the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} which dwelt{H3427}{(H8802)} in the cities{H5892} of Judah{H3063}, Rehoboam{H7346} reigned{H4427}{(H8799)} over them. 18 Then king{H4428} Rehoboam{H7346} sent{H7971}{(H8799)} Adoram{H151}, who was over the tribute{H4522}; and all Israel{H3478} stoned{H7275}{(H8799)} him with stones{H68}, that he died{H4191}{(H8799)}. Therefore king{H4428} Rehoboam{H7346} made speed{H553}{(H8694)} to get him up{H5927}{(H8800)} to his chariot{H4818}, to flee{H5127}{(H8800)} to Jerusalem{H3389}. 19 So Israel{H3478} rebelled{H6586}{(H8799)} against the house{H1004} of David{H1732} unto this day{H3117}. 20 And it came to pass, when all Israel{H3478} heard{H8085}{(H8800)} that Jeroboam{H3379} was come again{H7725}{(H8804)}, that they sent{H7971}{(H8799)} and called{H7121}{(H8799)} him unto the congregation{H5712}, and made him king{H4427}{(H8686)} over all Israel{H3478}: there was none that followed{H310} the house{H1004} of David{H1732}, but{H2108} the tribe{H7626} of Judah{H3063} only.
  • Isa 9:20-21 : 20 And he shall snatch{H1504}{(H8799)} on the right hand{H3225}, and be hungry{H7457}; and he shall eat{H398}{(H8799)} on the left hand{H8040}, and they shall not be satisfied{H7646}{(H8804)}: they shall eat{H398}{(H8799)} every man{H376} the flesh{H1320} of his own arm{H2220}: 21 Manasseh{H4519}, Ephraim{H669}; and Ephraim{H669}, Manasseh{H4519}: and they together{H3162} shall be against Judah{H3063}. For all this his anger{H639} is not turned away{H7725}{(H8804)}, but his hand{H3027} is stretched out still{H5186}{(H8803)}.
  • Isa 19:2-3 : 2 And I will set{H5526}{(H8773)} the Egyptians{H4714} against the Egyptians{H4714}: and they shall fight{H3898}{(H8738)} every one{H376} against his brother{H251}, and every one{H376} against his neighbour{H7453}; city{H5892} against city{H5892}, and kingdom{H4467} against kingdom{H4467}. 3 And the spirit{H7307} of Egypt{H4714} shall fail{H1238}{(H8738)} in the midst{H7130} thereof; and I will destroy{H1104}{(H8762)} the counsel{H6098} thereof: and they shall seek{H1875}{(H8804)} to the idols{H457}, and to the charmers{H328}, and to them that have familiar spirits{H178}, and to the wizards{H3049}.
  • Ezek 37:22 : 22 And I will make{H6213}{(H8804)} them one{H259} nation{H1471} in the land{H776} upon the mountains{H2022} of Israel{H3478}; and one{H259} king{H4428} shall be king{H4428} to them all: and they shall be{H5750} no more two{H8147} nations{H1471}, neither shall they be divided{H2673}{(H8735)} into two{H8147} kingdoms{H4467} any more at all:
  • Zech 11:14 : 14 Then I cut asunder{H1438}{(H8799)} mine other{H8145} staff{H4731}, even Bands{H2254}{(H8802)}, that I might break{H6565}{(H8687)} the brotherhood{H264} between Judah{H3063} and Israel{H3478}.
  • John 17:21 : 21 That{G2443} they all{G3956} may be{G5600}{(G5753)} one{G1520}; as{G2531} thou{G4771}, Father{G3962}, art in{G1722} me{G1698}, and I{G2504} in{G1722} thee{G4671}, that{G2443} they{G846} also{G2532} may be{G5600}{(G5753)} one{G1520} in{G1722} us{G2254}: that{G2443} the world{G2889} may believe{G4100}{(G5661)} that{G3754} thou{G4771} hast sent{G649}{(G5656)} me{G3165}.
