Jeroboam's line was destroyed as punishment for idolatry. In the biblical narrative, Jeroboam, the first king of the northern kingdom of Israel, led the people into idolatry by establishing golden calves for worship, which was seen as a significant turning away from the worship of Yahweh. This act ultimately led to divine judgment, resulting in the destruction of his lineage.
