	Digging Into The Past (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Pharaoh Sheshonk I of Egypt was the founder of the twenty-second dynasty in Egypt and ruled from about 945 to 915 B.C. In the Bible this ruler is called Shishak.
		In the excavation of Megiddo "a fragment of a stela of Shishak was found" (Finegan, Light From the Ancient Past, p.183).
		Shishak's inscription is significant because it records the first personal Biblical name (Shishak) to be found outside the Bible in a contemporary record, and, for the time being, it is the last Egyptian inscription of importance to Biblical studies.

	SHISHAK in the Bible Encyclopedia - ISBE (Bible History Online)
		On the death of Pasebkhanu II, the last of the kings of the XXIst Dynasty, 952 BC, Shishak ascended the throne, with an efficient army and a well-filled treasury at his command.
		There Jeroboam remained till the death of Solomon, when he returned to Canaan, and, on Rehoboam's returning an unsatisfactory answer to the people's demands for relief from their burdens, headed the revolt of the Ten Tribes, over whom he was chosen king with his capital at Shechem (1 Ki 12:25 ff).
		Shishak took away the treasures of the house of the Lord and the treasures of the king's house, carrying off among the most precious of the spoils all the shields of gold which Solomon had made (1 Ki 14:25 ff; 2 Ch 12:1-9).

		Another remarkable circumstance is, that these Israelitish conquests of Shishak are all of Levitical or else of ancient Canaanite cities, and that they are of towns in all parts of the territory of the ten tribes, and at considerable distances from one another, there being, however, no mention of the taking of the intervening cities.
		This is why they were attacked and conquered by Shishak on his expedition against Judah, as virtually subject to the house of David, and hence constituting an element not only of rebellion but of danger within the new kingdom of Israel.
		On the capture of Jerusalem, Shishak is said to have taken it, and the possession of this treasure is then traced through various wars to Rome, where it is said now to be.

	Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
		Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem—He was the first king of the twenty-second or Bubastic Dynasty.
		While Shishak and his army was before Jerusalem, the prophet Shemaiah addressed Rehoboam and the princes, tracing this calamity to the national apostasy and threatening them with utter destruction in consequence of having forsaken God (2Ch 12:6).
		So Shishak … came up against Jerusalem—After the parenthetical clause (2Ch 12:5-8) describing the feelings and state of the beleaguered court, the historian resumes his narrative of the attack upon Jerusalem, and the consequent pillage both of the temple and the palace.

		At the preaching of the prophet Shemaiah, Rehoboam and his people repented, and Jerusalem was saved from destruction, though not from plunder nor from servitude, for he became Shishak's servant (2 Chronicles 12:8).

		When Shishak king of Egypt attacked Jerusalem, he carried off the treasures of the temple of the LORD and the treasures of the royal palace.
		If Shoshenk I is to be equated with the biblical Shishak, why did he attack his ally Jeroboam in Israel while meticulously avoiding an incursion into the territory of his enemy, Rehoboam king of Israel?.

	The Megiddo Expedition
		After Solomon's death the kingdom split apart, the north seceding from the south, Solomon's son Rehoboam became king of Judah, the southern kingdom, and Jeroboam, son of Nabat, became king of Israel, the northern kingdom.
		Then, "in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, King Shishak of Egypt marched against Jerusalem and carried off the treasures of the house of the Lord and the treasures of the royal palace" (I Kings 14:25-26).
		Perhaps this was caused by conflicts during the breakup of the kingdom or by later events, rather than by Shishak.

		Because Rehoboam had dealt treacherously with the Lord, he was surrounded on all sides, Jeroboam with the ten tribes in the north, Shishak with an immense army in the south.

		The picture overleaf shows a gold bracelet that belonged to Shishak which the experts suggest was probably made from the gold looted from Jerusalem.
		It is also thought that much of the gold gathered by Solomon and taken as plunder by Shishak, was used to make many of the magnificent presents, which the Pharaohs offered to their gods.

		The famous city list of pharaoh Sheshonk of the 22nd dynasty, long held to be Pharaoh Shishak's campaign to Jerusalem, is in reality his campaign to lend support to Jehoahaz of Israel against Hazael, king of Damascus which took place in about 816-810 BC.
		The implication is that `Shishak' was a name (Horus name) for Thutmose and has nothing to do with a pharaoh of the 22nd Dynasty by the name of Sheshonk.

		and therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak; suffered him to invade their land, take their fenced cities, and come up to Jerusalem without any opposition, as a punishment of their apostasy; and to explain this providence to them, and call them to repentance, was the prophet sent.

		Shishak at the beginning of his reign received the fugitive Jeroboam, (1 Kings 11:40) and it was probably at the instigation of Jeroboam that he attacked Rehoboam.

		Though Shishak remains the first foreign king mentioned in the Bible for which there may be extra-biblical evidence, the Hebrew and Egyptian accounts do not always seem to agree in this area.
