[The sixth king of Israel (the northern kingdom) – Omri (884-873 BC)
The name Omri means "sheaf of grain."]
At that time, the people of Israel were divided into two parts, half of the people followed Tivni, the son of Ginath, and made him king, and the other half followed Omri.
And the people who followed Omri were stronger (more steadfast, braver) than the people who followed Tivni, the son of Ginat, and Tivni died and Omri reigned.
