 +Omri was the second king of Israel (the ten tribes), after his father [[Jeroboam]] who ruled before him, when the [[two kingdoms]] were split.
 +
 +There was a brief civil war or at least a strong political split between him and Tibni, where there was some struggle as to who would become king. (1 Kings 16:​21-22). ​ Tibni died, somehow, and Omri became king.
 +
 +Omri was a wicked king as well, following in his father'​s footsteps, and was comparatively more evil (1 Kings 16:25-26).
 +
 +The entire story of Omri is in 1 Kings 16:15-28.
