'Dynasty' in the Bible

Then I will establish your dynasty, just as I promised your father David, 'You will not fail to have a successor ruling over Israel.'

When all Israel saw that the king refused to listen to them, the people answered the king, "We have no portion in David -- no share in the son of Jesse! Return to your homes, O Israel! Now, look after your own dynasty, O David!" So all Israel returned to their homes.

So Israel has been in rebellion against the Davidic dynasty to this very day.

Don't you realize that the Lord God of Israel has given David and his dynasty lasting dominion over Israel by a formal agreement?

Now you are declaring that you will resist the Lord's rule through the Davidic dynasty. You have a huge army, and bring with you the gold calves that Jeroboam made for you as gods.

He followed in the footsteps of the kings of Israel, just as Ahab's dynasty had done, for he married Ahab's daughter. He did evil in the sight of the Lord.

But the Lord was unwilling to destroy David's dynasty because of the promise he had made to give David a perpetual dynasty.

He followed in the footsteps of Ahab's dynasty, for his mother gave him evil advice.

He did evil in the sight of the Lord like Ahab's dynasty because, after his father's death, they gave him advice that led to his destruction.
