Royal Officials and Brothers The attendees of Adonijah's feast, including his brothers and the men of Judah who were royal officials. Their presence indicates the political maneuvering and alliances being formed. Teaching Points The Dangers of Self-ExaltationAdonijah's actions remind us of the dangers of self-promotion and ambition without seeking God's will. True leadership is appointed by God, not seized by human effort. The Importance of Seeking God's Guidance Before making significant decisions, we should seek God's guidance and approval, rather than relying solely on our understanding or desires. The Role of Sacrifice and Worship While Adonijah's sacrifices were meant to gain favor, they lacked genuine worship and submission to God. Our offerings to God should come from a heart of obedience and reverence. The Influence of Peer Pressure and Alliances The presence of royal officials and brothers at Adonijah's feast highlights the influence of peer pressure and political alliances. We must be cautious about the company we keep and the alliances we form. Bible Study Questions and Answers 1. What is the meaning of 1 Kings 1:9?2.

What Does 1 Kings 1:9 Mean And Adonijah sacrificed sheep, oxen, and fattened calves• The scale of the sacrifice signals a public declaration of kingship, much like Saul’s self-directed offering in 1 Samuel 13:9 or Absalom’s feast in 2 Samuel 15:12. • By choosing costly animals (cf. Deuteronomy 17:1), Adonijah strives to cloak his power-grab in religious legitimacy, yet, unlike David’s heartfelt worship in 2 Samuel 24:24–25, his motive is political, not devotional. • Scripture warns that mere ritual without obedience is empty (1 Samuel 15:22); here the lavish ceremony masks rebellion against God’s declared choice of Solomon (1 Chronicles 22:9–10). near the stone of Zoheleth • A fixed landmark just outside Jerusalem gives visibility and credibility to the event, similar to Joshua’s memorial stones at Gilgal (Joshua 4:20). • “Zoheleth” was on the main approach to the city; anyone passing would witness the celebration, spreading word of Adonijah’s claim. • Public settings often reveal whether worship is God-centered or self-promoting (Matthew 6:5). which is next to En-rogel • En-rogel, the spring where Jonathan and Ahimaaz once hid for David (2 Samuel 17:17), becomes the scene of a son’s defiance against David. • The contrast underscores how places tied to past deliverance can be repurposed for rebellion when hearts drift from the Lord (Psalm 106:7). He invited all his royal brothers • As Absalom excluded Amnon (2 Samuel 13:23–27), Adonijah excludes Solomon (1 Kings 1:10), revealing calculated politicking. • Securing family endorsement would appear to legitimize his rule, yet true authority rests on divine appointment, not majority agreement (Numbers 17:5). • Notably absent are Nathan and Benaiah—the prophetic and military voices loyal to God’s plan—showing that ungodly schemes avoid godly counsel (Proverbs 15:22). and all the men of Judah who were servants of the king • Rallying Judah’s officials recalls how David originally won Judah’s heart (2 Samuel 19:14); Adonijah tries to replicate that momentum. • Earthly alliances can seem formidable, but the Lord “thwarts the plans of the peoples” (Psalm 33:10) when they oppose His will. • Solomon, though uninvolved, will soon be anointed at Gihon (1 Kings 1:38-39), demonstrating that God can overturn human plotting in a moment (Proverbs 21:30). summary Adonijah’s grand sacrifice by the stone of Zoheleth near En-rogel, surrounded by brothers and Judah’s officials, looks impressive, yet every detail exposes a heart set on self-exaltation rather than submission to God’s revealed choice. The passage warns that no amount of ceremony, popular support, or strategic location can replace humble obedience to the Lord’s word. (9) The stone of Zoheleth.--The meaning is uncertain. The derivation seems to be from a root, meaning to "crawl," or "steal on." Some interpreters render, the "stone of the serpents;" the Targums make it "the rolling stone;" other authorities "the stone of the conduit," which would suit well its position as here described.En-rogel.--"The spring of the fuller." (See Joshua 15:7; Joshua 18:16; 2Samuel 17:17.) Its proximity would be useful for the purposes of sacrifice; for it appears to be the only natural spring near Jerusalem, situated not far from Siloam. Verse 9. - And Adonijah slew [or sacrificed, LXX. ἐθυσίασεν. It was a sacrificial feast, like Absalom's, 2 Samuel 15:12 (where see Speaker's note). Religious festivity, i.e., was the apparent object of their assembling: religion was invoked, not merely to cloke their designs, but to cement them together] sheep and oxen and fat cattle by [Hebrews with; same expression, 2 Samuel 20:8] the stone of Zoheleth, [i.e.,"the serpent" (Gesen.) "No satisfactory explanation has been given of this name" (Rawlinson). See Smith's "Dict. Bible" sub voc., where the various interpretations are given. The stone, which served as "a natural altar for the sacrificial feast," the spring, which afforded "water for the necessary ablutions," and the situation with respect to the adjoining city recommended this place as a rendezvous] which is by En-Rogel [Joshua 15:7; Joshua 18:16; 2 Samuel 17:17. Perhaps "the spring of the spy." The Chald., Arab., and Syr. render "the spring, of the fuller" - the Orientals wash clothes, etc., by treading (rogel) them. Josephus says it was without the city, in the royal garden (ἐν βασιλικῷ παραδείσῳ). The authorities are divided between the "Fountain of the virgin" (Ain um ed-Deraj), and the "Well of Job" (Bir Eyub.) See the arguments in Bonar's "Land of Promise," App. 5; Thomson's "Land and Book," vol. 2 p. 528; and Mr. Grove's Art. in Smith's "Dict. Bib." Porter ("Handbook of Palestine ") identifies En-Rogel with Bir Eyub without remark. There is much to be said on either side. The pool of Siloam ("Bib. Museum") has nothing in its favour] and called all his brethren the king's sons [including, it would seem, even the elder sons of David and Bathsheba, who would bring up the number to fifteen (1 Chronicles 3:5). They too, if living, would naturally resent the preference of the youngest brother], and all the men of Judah, the king's servants ["all the Judeans who were serving at court, as being members of his own tribe" (Keil). The fierce jealousy between Ephraim and Judah would almost compel the king to surround himself with soldiers and attendants of the latter tribe. Some of the invited guests, no doubt, like Absalom's two hundred, "went in their simplicity and knew not anything" (2 Samuel 15:11).Parallel Commentaries ...
