מלכים א, פרק י״ב, פסוק כ״ג

A direct command is issued to Rehoboam and the residents of his kingdom. This realm is primarily composed of the tribes of Judah and Benjamin, but the directive also addresses an additional segment of the population. This specific group consists of many individuals who originally belonged to the other Israelite tribes. Despite their different tribal lineage, these people were living within the territorial borders of Judah and Benjamin at that time [מצודת דוד].
