Solomon’s son
The mention of Solomon here is significant as he was the son of David and Bathsheba, and his reign is often seen as the golden age of Israel due to his wisdom and the building of the Temple. The Hebrew root for Solomon is "Shlomo," which is derived from "shalom," meaning peace. Solomon's reign was marked by peace and prosperity, a fulfillment of God's promise to David. This peace allowed for the construction of the Temple, a central place of worship for Israel.

was Rehoboam
Rehoboam, whose name means "he enlarges the people," was Solomon's successor. His reign marked the beginning of the divided kingdom due to his failure to heed wise counsel, leading to the secession of the ten northern tribes. This division is a pivotal moment in Israel's history, illustrating the consequences of pride and the importance of seeking God's wisdom.

Abijah his son
Abijah, also known as Abijam, means "my father is Yahweh." His reign was short, and he is noted for his war with Jeroboam of Israel. Despite his shortcomings, Abijah's name reflects a heritage of faith, reminding us of the importance of identity in God, even amidst personal and national struggles.

Asa his son
Asa, meaning "physician" or "healer," was known for his religious reforms and efforts to rid Judah of idolatry. His reign is characterized by a return to the worship of Yahweh and reliance on God for victory over enemies. Asa's life encourages believers to pursue spiritual renewal and trust in God's power.

Jehoshaphat his son
Jehoshaphat, meaning "Yahweh has judged," was noted for his efforts to strengthen the kingdom spiritually and militarily. He sought to follow God's commands and established a system of justice and religious education. His reign underscores the importance of righteous leadership and the blessings of aligning a nation with God's will.

II.--The kings of the house of David, as otherwise known from the books of Kings (1Chronicles 3:10-16).

(10) Rehoboam.--So LXX. ??????. Heb., R?hab-'?m ("the Kinsman," i.e., God hath enlarged).

Abia.--LXX., ????; Heb., Abiy?h (Iah is father), of which Abijam (Abiy?m) is a mimmated form.

Asa.--Healer.

Jehoshaphat.--Iahweh judgeth.

Verses 10-16. - The line of royal descent from David, is now rapidly carried down in these verses - first, as far as good King Josiah, sixteen generations in all (omitting, quite consistently, Athalia, who reigned by her own usurpation for six years on the death of her son Azariah); and then, by four successions (viz. two brothers, sons of Josiah, and a grandson and great-grandson of Josiah), to the Captivity. Verse 10. - Though the Authorized Version has Abia the Hebrew word is אֲבִיָּה both here and in 2 Chronicles 13:1, 23 (or Authorized Version, 14:1), in both of which passages, as also elsewhere, our Authorized Version has Abijah. Another form is Abijam (אֲבִיָּם), as in 1 Kings 14:31 and elsewhere. A corrupt form (אֲבִיָּחוּ) is found in 2 Chronicles 13:20. We have the name in the New Testament genealogy (Matthew 1:7, 8).
