אַחַר הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה לֹא־שָׁב יָרׇבְעָם מִדַּרְכּוֹ הָרָעָה וַיָּשׇׁב וַיַּעַשׂ מִקְצוֹת הָעָם כֹּהֲנֵי בָמוֹת הֶֽחָפֵץ יְמַלֵּא אֶת־יָדוֹ וִיהִי כֹּהֲנֵי בָמֽוֹת׃
[Even] after all that transpired, Yerovom did not repent from his evil way; and he again appointed from the ends of the people priests for the altars. Whoever desired would be consecrated and become [one of] the priests of the altars.

וַֽיְהִי בַּדָּבָר הַזֶּה לְחַטַּאת בֵּית יָרׇבְעָם וּלְהַכְחִיד וּלְהַשְׁמִיד מֵעַל פְּנֵי הָאֲדָמָֽה׃ {פ}
And this thing became a sin for the house of Yerovom, and caused it to be cut off and destroyed from the face of the earth.

אחר הדבר הזה. שראה את המופת הזה, ושמע את דברי הנביא, ואף על פי כן לא שב ורבותינו דרשו (שם קב א): אחר שתפסו הקב"ה בבגדו, ואמר לו: חזור בך, ואני ואתה ובן ישי נטייל בגן עדן:
[Even] after all that transpired. That he saw this wonder and heard the words of the prophet, and he, nevertheless, did not repent. And our Rabbis expounded, “After the Holy One Blessed Is He, grasped him by his garment and said to him, ‘Repent, and I and you and the son of Yishay will stroll in the Garden of Eden.’”12See Maseches Sanhedrin 102a. The conversation continued, “Yerovom said, ‘Who will walk in front?’ [and the reply was,] ‘The son of Yishy.’ [Yerovom responded,] ‘If so, I want no part of it.’”
