TSNTyndale Study Notes:

11:15 Some scholars believe that Jeroboam set up the goat and calf idols as pedestals for the Lord, noting that the Canaanites believed that their gods stood on the backs of animals (cp. Exod 32:5, where the gold calf was used in “a festival to the Lord”). However, Jeroboam never specifically credited the Lord with rescuing Israel (1 Kgs 12:28), so others think he might have meant that other gods stood on the animals. Still others think Jeroboam might have adopted the practice of the Egyptians, portraying actual pagan deities in animal form (cp. Exod 32:4).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) the goat and calf idols he had made

(Some words not found in UHB: and,appointed to=him/it priests for_the,high_places and,for_the,goat-demons and,for_the,calves which/who he/it_had_made )

It might be best to translate so that the reader understands that other people helped Jeroboam make these idols. Alternate translation: “the goat idols and calf idols that he had his craftsmen make”
