“And Abijam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead.”
King James Version (KJV)
15:6 War between, &c. - Upon Jeroboam's invading him with a greatarmy: acting then in his own defence, he totally routed Jeroboam, sothat he was quiet the rest of his reign.
15:10 Mother's - That is, his grandmother's, as appears fromver.#2|,who is called his mother, as David is called Abijam's father,ver.#3|. And his grand - mother's name may be here mentioned, rather thanhis mother's, because his mother was either an obscure person, or was dead,or unwilling to take care of the education of her son, and so he waseducated by the grand - mother, who, though she poisoned his father Abijamwith her idolatrous principles, ver.#12|, yet could not infectAsa, nor withhold him from prosecuting his good purposes of reformingreligion.
