1 Kings 2:26-27

[26] And unto Abiathar the priest said the king, thee to Anathoth, unto thine own fields; for thou art worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou barest the ark of the Lord GOD before David my father, and because thou hast been afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted. [27] So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest unto the LORD; that he might fulfil the word of the LORD, which he spake concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.

What does 1 Kings 2:26-27 Mean?

Contextual Meaning

Solomon granted Abiathar a parole for participating in Adonijah"s rebellion. By removing him from his office, he cut off Eli"s last descendant, thereby fulfilling God"s prophecy to Eli ( 1 Samuel 2:27-36). Eli"s fertility ended because he had not obeyed God"s Law faithfully. The writer of Kings drew special attention to God bringing this to pass ( 1 Kings 2:27).
