1 Kings 11:29-30
v. 29-30: One day, as Jeroboam was leaving Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah met him. Ahijah was wearing a new garment, which he tore into twelve pieces. He gave Jeroboam ten of those pieces as a sign. This represented God’s plan to give Jeroboam rule over ten tribes of Israel (1 Kings 11:29-30 a). This act was similar to other symbolic actions of the prophets, such as Agabus in the New Testament (Acts 21:10-11 b). –
