Joshua's curse upon Hiel the builder of Jericho He bought the hill of Samaria from Shemer This transaction marks a significant moment in the history of the Northern Kingdom of Israel. The purchase of the hill from Shemer indicates a legal and formal acquisition, which was common in ancient Near Eastern practices. The name "Shemer" is preserved in the name of the city, Samaria, suggesting the importance of lineage and heritage in naming conventions.

In our lives, we must ensure that our spiritual and moral foundations are built on Christ, the solid rock. Strategic Decisions and Their Consequences Omri's choice of Samaria was strategic, but it also became a center of idolatry and rebellion against God. Our decisions should be guided by wisdom and aligned with God's will to avoid negative consequences. Legacy and Influence Omri's legacy was marked by the city he built, which influenced Israel's history. We should consider the legacy we are building and strive to leave a positive, godly influence on those around us. The Cost of Leadership Omri's investment in Samaria reflects the cost of leadership. As leaders in our families, churches, or communities, we must be willing to invest time, resources, and effort to build and nurture those we lead.

What Does 1 Kings 16:24 Mean He bought the hill of Samaria from Shemer– Omri’s purchase is intentional and lawful, echoing earlier righteous examples of acquiring land (Genesis 23:17-20; 2 Samuel 24:24). – A monarch who had seized the throne through force now secures his capital through purchase, underscoring that legitimate ownership matters before God (Proverbs 13:11). – The hill’s strategic position halfway between Judah and Galilee mirrors God’s providence in placing His people where His larger redemptive plan will unfold (Acts 1:8, where the gospel later spreads “in Samaria”). For two talents of silver – Roughly 150 pounds (68 kg) of silver—substantial, yet not exorbitant—showing stewardship rather than extravagance (Proverbs 21:20). – Scripture frequently records significant transactions in talents to highlight value and accountability (2 Kings 5:5; Matthew 25:15). – Omri invests earthly treasure to gain a national center; believers are reminded that resources can and should advance God-directed purposes (Luke 16:9). And built a city there – Building a capital turns the hill into the heartbeat of the northern kingdom (1 Kings 18:2). – As Jerusalem was the southern capital, so Samaria becomes the northern counterpart—yet its later fall (Micah 1:6) warns that walls cannot protect a people who forsake the Lord. – The project fits a pattern: leaders create cities, but God evaluates them (Genesis 11:4-9; Revelation 21:2). Calling it Samaria after the name of Shemer – Naming rights acknowledge the previous owner, preserving historical memory (Joshua 14:15). – “Samaria” will appear across Scripture, from Elijah’s ministry (1 Kings 18:20) to Christ’s outreach to the Samaritan woman (John 4:5-42), demonstrating that God weaves future grace into present decisions. – A city’s name can bear either honor or reproach; Samaria will experience both God’s patience (2 Kings 10:30) and His judgment (2 Kings 17:5-6). Who had owned the hill – Earthly ownership is temporary; true possession belongs to the Lord (Psalm 24:1). – The text quietly reminds readers that individuals come and go, yet the storyline of redemption continues across generations (Hebrews 11:13). summary 1 Kings 16:24 records Omri’s purchase and construction of Samaria, highlighting responsible acquisition, wise investment, purposeful building, and meaningful naming. Each element affirms that God oversees human plans, uses strategic locations for His unfolding purposes, and ultimately owns every hill and city. (24) Built on the hill.--Omri only followed the usual practice of a new dynasty in the East, of which Jeroboam had set an example at Shechem, and probably Baasha at Tirzah. Possibly the seeds of disaffection may have still lurked in Tirzah, the place of Zimri's conspiracy, and (as has been conjectured) of Tibni's rival power. But the site of Samaria must have been chosen by a soldier's eye. Its Hebrew name (Shomeron) means a "watch-tower," and may well have had a double derivation, from its natural position, as well as from its owner's name. Its position was one of great beauty, and, in the warfare of those days, of singular strength, as is shown by the long sieges which it withstood (1Kings 20:1; 2Kings 6:24; 2Kings 17:5; 2Kings 18:9-10). It lay north-west of Shechem, on an isolated hill with precipitous sides, rising in the middle of a basin of the hills of Ephraim, not far from the edge of the maritime plain, and commanding a view of the sea. Its history vindicated the sagacity of its founder. Even after its destruction and depopulation by the Assyrians, it seems to have revived, for Alexander took it on his invasion of Palestine, and placed a Greek colony there. Again destroyed by John Hyrcanus, it was rebuilt by Herod, and called Sebaste, in honour of Augustus. In the Assyrian inscriptions it is known as Beth-Khumri ("the house of Omri").Verse 24. ? And he bought [i.e., after the six years just mentioned. During the four years of anarchy Omri would seem to have retained possession of the capital which he had taken (ver. 18) on Zimri's death. But the palace being burnt and the defences perhaps weakened by the siege, he determined, rather than rebuild it, to found a capital elsewhere] the hill Samaria [Heb. Shomeron, called by Herod Sebaste, whence its modern name Sebustieh. In his selection of Samaria for the seat of government, Omri acted with singular judgment. It has been said that "Shechem is the natural capital of Palestine," and no doubt it enjoys a commanding position and great advantages, but Samaria has even superior recommendations. It is a site with which no traveller can fail to be deeply impressed. Even Van de Velde, who says, "I do not agree with Dr. Robinson and other writers who follow him that the mountain of Samaria presents so admirable a combination of strength, fertility, and beauty, that the like is hardly to be found in Palestine" (vol. 1. pp. 374, 375), nevertheless readily allows its superiority to Tirzah, and remarks on the strength of its position. "Many travellers have expressed a conviction that the spot was in most respects much preferable to the site of Jerusalem" (Kitto). It is a large oval or oblong mound, with a level surface, adapted for buildings, with steep sides to make its position impregnable, and surrounded by an amphitheatre of hills. "Samaria is in a position of great strength., and must before the invention of gunpowder have been almost impregnable. It stands some 400 feet above the valley, the sides of the hill being steep and terraced in every direction for cultivation, or perhaps for defensive purposes.. broad and open valleys stretch north and south, and the hill is thus almost isolated," Conder, p. 47, who adds, "Strategical reasons may be supposed to have dictated the choice of the capital of Omri, for on the north the hill commands the main road to Jezreel over a steep pass, on the west it dominates the road to the coast, and on the east that to the Jordan" (p. 49). Grove (Dict. Bib. 3:1099) speaks of "the singular beauty of the spot," and Stanley ("Jewish Church" it. p. 284) justly sees in the selection of this spot a proof of Omri's sagacity. But perhaps the best proof is that which the subsequent history supplies. Shechem and Tirzah had each been tried, and each in turn had been abandoned. But Samaria continued to be the capital so long as the kingdom lasted] of Shemer for two talents of silver [variously estimated at £500 and £800. This purchase, obviously of the freehold, i.e., in perpetuity, was in contravention of the law of Leviticus 25:23. David had bought the threshing floor of Ornan, but that was(1) from a Jebusite, and (2) for a high religious purpose (2 Samuel 24:24). It has been suggested that this purchase may have inspired Ahab with the idea of buying the vineyard of Naboth], and built on [Heb. built] the hill and called the name of the city which he built, after the name of Shemer, owner of the hill, Samaria. [It is not improbable that the vendor bargained that the land should retain his name (cf. Psalm 49:11). The reluctance of the Israelite to part with his patrimony, even to the king, is brought out very strikingly in ch. 21. Shemer, in selling his choice parcel of land for a capital, might well wish to connect his name with it. The fact that שֹׁמְרון means watch mountain (Gesen.), and that we should have expected a name formed from Shemer to take the form Shimron - Shomeron would strictly imply an original Shomer - is not by any means a proof that our historian is at fault in his derivation. For, in the first place, the names Shomer and Shemer are used of the same person in 1 Chronicles 7:32, 34. And secondly, nothing would be more in accordance with Jewish ideas than that Omri, in naming the hill after its owner, should give a turn to the word which would also express at the same time its characteristic feature. A pun, or play upon word, was the form which wit assumed amongst the Semitic races (as, indeed, is the case still, see Conder, p. 801), and the form Shomeron would at once perpetuate the memory of Shemer, and express the hope and purpose of Omri. It is a curious fact that the later Samaritans did play upon this very word, representing themselves as guardians (שֹּׁמְרִים) of the law (Ewald). The Greek form of the name, Σαμάρεια, would seem to have been derived through the Chaldee שִׁמְרָיִן as found in Ezra 4:10, 17.] Hebrew He boughtוַיִּ֜קֶן (way·yi·qen) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singular Strong's 7069: To erect, create, to procure, by purchase, to own the hill הָהָ֥ר (hā·hār) Article | Noun - masculine singular Strong's 2022: Mountain, hill, hill country of Samaria שֹׁמְר֛וֹן (šō·mə·rō·wn) Noun - proper - feminine singular Strong's 8111: Samaria -- capital of northern kingdom of Israel from מֵ֥אֶת (mê·’eṯ) Preposition | Direct object marker Strong's 853: Untranslatable mark of the accusative case Shemer שֶׁ֖מֶר (še·mer) Noun - proper - masculine singular Strong's 8106: Shemer -- three Israelites for two talents בְּכִכְּרַ֣יִם (bə·ḵik·kə·ra·yim) Preposition-b | Noun - fd Strong's 3603: A round, a round district, a round loaf, a round weight, a talent (a measure of weight or money) of silver כָּ֑סֶף (kā·sep̄) Noun - masculine singular Strong's 3701: Silver, money and built [a city] וַיִּ֙בֶן֙ (way·yi·ḇen) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singular Strong's 1129: To build [there], הָהָ֔ר (hā·hār) Article | Noun - masculine singular Strong's 2022: Mountain, hill, hill country calling וַיִּקְרָ֗א (way·yiq·rā) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singular Strong's 7121: To call, proclaim, read [it] הָעִיר֙ (hā·‘îr) Article | Noun - feminine singular Strong's 5892: Excitement Samaria שֹׁמְרֽוֹן׃ (šō·mə·rō·wn) Noun - proper - feminine singular Strong's 8111: Samaria -- capital of northern kingdom of Israel after עַ֣ל (‘al) Preposition Strong's 5921: Above, over, upon, against the name שֶׁם־ (šem-) Noun - masculine singular construct Strong's 8034: A name of Shemer, שֶׁ֔מֶר (še·mer) Noun - proper - masculine singular Strong's 8106: Shemer -- three Israelites who had owned אֲדֹנֵ֖י (’ă·ḏō·nê) Noun - masculine plural construct Strong's 113: Sovereign, controller the hill. הָהָ֥ר (hā·hār) Article | Noun - masculine singular Strong's 2022: Mountain, hill, hill country Links 1 Kings 16:24 NIV1 Kings 16:24 NLT 1 Kings 16:24 ESV 1 Kings 16:24 NASB 1 Kings 16:24 KJV 1 Kings 16:24 BibleApps.com 1 Kings 16:24 Biblia Paralela 1 Kings 16:24 Chinese Bible 1 Kings 16:24 French Bible 1 Kings 16:24 Catholic Bible OT History: 1 Kings 16:24 He bought the hill Samaria of Shemer (1Ki iKi i Ki 1 Kg 1kg) |
