“It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem.” Those were the words of King Jeroboam to the people of Israel (1 Kings 12:28). He knew God said to come to Jerusalem and worship Him at the temple. That didn’t stop him from changing what God commanded. He made it easy for people to “worship.” He told them they didn’t have to travel all the way to Jerusalem. Just go to Dan and Bethel. They’re much closer. But he didn’t stop there. He made golden calves and told the people they could worship them. Then he made men who were not of the tribe of Levi priests and ordered a festival of worship at a time the law of Moses didn’t authorize.
