Kingdom of Judah

Rehoboam, the First King. Solomon was succeeded by his son, Rehoboam (1 Kings 12:43). Upon his elevation to the throne a deputation of his countrymen waited upon him, requesting relief from Oppressive taxation. He forsook the counsel of the old men and followed The counsel of the young men, and refused to grant their request (1 Kings 12:1-15; 2 Chronicles 10:1-15). His ungenerous treatment caused ten of the tribes to rebel against his authority. He undertook to suppress the Rebellion, but was warned of God not to make war against his brethren (1 Kings 12:16-24; 2 Chronicles 10:16-19). Rehoboam took up his residence in Jerusalem, built cities and fortified strongholds (2 Chronicles 11:5-12). On account of the apostasy of Jeroboam and Israel, the priests, Levites and other true worshippers remaining in Israel repaired to Jerusalem to worship God, and they therefore strengthened the king (2 Chronicles 11:13-17). Rehoboam had many wives in violation of the law of Moses (Deuteronomy 14:14-18; 2 Chronicles 11:18-23). After he established himself upon the throne, he forsook the law of the Lord and was greatly punished by Shishak, king of Egypt (2 Chronicles 12:1-12). There was war between Jeroboam and Rehoboam continually (1 Kings 15:6). He reigned seventeen years (2 Chronicles 12:13) and was contemporary with Jeroboam (1 Kings 12:1-20; 1 Kings 14:20).
Shemaiah the Prophet. Shemaiah, the prophet, flourished during The reign of Rehoboam and communicated to him the command of the Lord Not to go to war against the ten tribes when they rebelled against his Authority (1 Kings 12:22-24).
Abijam, the Second King. Rehoboam was succeeded by his son Abijam. He walked in the ways of his father and sinned against God (1 Kings 15:1-5). The war that had begun between the two kingdoms was continued during the reign of Abijam, and finally resulted in the Defeat of Jeroboam (2 Chronicles 13:1-20). During the latter part of Abijam's reign he waxed fat and married fourteen wives (2 Chronicles 13:21,22). He reigned three years contemporaneously with Jeroboam (1 Kings 14:20 1 Kings 15:1,2).
Asa, the Third King. Abijam was succeeded by his son Asa (1 Kings 15:8). Immediately upon his accession to the throne he inaugurated a reformation; he removed the sodomites out of the Land; he removed all the idols his father had made; he removed his Mother from being queen, and destroyed her idol. His heart was perfect Toward the Lord, and the things his father had dedicated, he brought Into the house of the Lord (1 Kings 15:9-15). There was war between Asa and Baasha, and success seemed to attend Baasha for a time, but finally Asa induced Benhadad to make a league with him which resulted in favor Of Asa (1 Kings 15:16-22). Asa greatly improved his military equipments, and greatly increased the army (2 Chronicles 14:1-8). He gained a victory over the mighty host of Zerah the Ethiopian (2 Chronicles 14:9-15). After this victory he was met by the servant of God who strengthened and Encouraged him (2 Chronicles 15:1-7). He was also greatly encouraged by Oded, the prophet, and, as a result of his words, pushed his reforms and Gathered his people together at Jerusalem, where many sacrifices were Offered and a covenant entered into to seek and serve the Lord (2 Chronicles 15:8-19). Asa was severely rebuked by Hanani because he had relied on the Syrians to assist him in war. The prophet assured him That in this he had done foolishly, for the eyes of the Lord run to and Fro throughout the earth in order to show Himself strong in behalf of Those whose hearts are perfect toward Him. The king was angry at the Seer and imprisoned him, and he also oppressed some of the people (2 Chronicles 16:7-10). Asa's closing years were clouded by disease and sorrow; he sought the physicians and not the Lord, and he slept With his fathers, and his countrymen buried him with distinguished Honors in the city of David (2 Chronicles 16:11-14). Asa reigned forty-one years (2 Kings 15:8-10), and was contemporary with seven of the kings of Israel:
1. Jeroboam two years (1 Kings 14:20,31; 1 Kings 15:1,2; 2 Chronicles 12:13);
2. Nadab, two years (1 Kings 14:20; 1 Kings 15:25);
3. Baasha, twenty-four years (1 Kings 15:33);
4. Elah, two years (1 Kings 16:8);
5. Zimri, seven days (1 Kings 16:8-10,15);
6. Omri, six years (1 Kings 16:23,28,29);
7. Ahab, three years (1 Kings 16:29).
Azariah, Oded, and Hanani the Prophets. The prophets Azariah (2 Chronicles 15:1,2), Oded (2 Chronicles 15:8; flourished during the reign of Asa (2 Chronicles 15:1-8; 2 Chronicles 16:7-10).
Jehoshaphat, the Fourth King. Asa was succeeded by his son Jehoshaphat (1 Kings 15:24). He continued the work inaugurated by his father by fortifying the land and destroying the remains of idolatrous Worship. He also appointed Levites to go throughout the cities of the Country and teach the people the law of the Lord (2 Chronicles 17:1-9). Fear fell upon the surrounding nations and Jehoshaphat's reign was one of Peace (2 Chronicles 17:10). He assisted Ahab in a campaign against Ramothgilead, which resulted in the death of the king of Israel (2 Chronicles 18:1-34). The latter part of his reign was distinguished by,
1. the rebuke of the prophet on account of his association with the ungodly king of Israel;
2. the inauguration of numerous reforms for the benefit of the people (2 Chronicles 19:1-11);
3. a great victory over his enemies;
4. peace and unfortunate commercial operations (2 Chronicles 20:1-37).
Jehoshaphat reigned twenty-five years (2 Chronicles 20:31), and was contemporary with Ahab seventeen years (1 Kings 16:29; 1 Kings 22:41,50,51), Ahaziah two years (1 Kings 22:51), Jehoram six years (2 Kings 3:1;
Jehu and Jahaziel the Prophets. The prophets Jehu, the son of Hanani (2 Chronicles 19:1-3), and Jahaziel flourished during the reign of Jehoshaphat (2 Chronicles 20:14-17).
Jehoram, the Fifth King. Jehoshaphat was succeeded by his son Jehoram (2 Chronicles 21:1). His reign was characterized by murder, war, devastation and great trouble, and his departure caused not regret (2 Chronicles 21:1-20). He reigned eight years (2 Chronicles 21:1,5; contemporary with Jehoram, king of Israel (1 Kings 22:42; 2 Kings 3:1; 2 Kings 9:29).
Ahaziah, the Sixth King. Jehoram was succeeded by Ahaziah. His Reign was distinguished on account of his wickedness (2 Chronicles 22:1-4). He went to Jezreel to visit Joram, king of Israel, who had been wounded in War with the Syrians, where he was slain by Jehu, the son of Nimshi (2 Chronicles 22:5-9). Ahaziah reigned contemporaneously with Jehoram one year (2 Kings 3:1; 2 Kings 8:24-26).
Athaliah, the Usurper. As soon as the mother of Ahaziah Discovered that he was dead, she attempted to destroy all the royal Seed, and succeeded him as king (2 Kings 11:1-3; 2 Chronicles 22:10-12). She reigned contemporaneously with Jehu about six years (2 Kings 9:1-12; 2 Kings 10:36; 2 Kings 11:1-4).
Jehoash, the Seventh King. Athaliah was succeeded Jehoash, the son of Ahaziah. He was saved at the time of the Destruction of the royal seed, by Jehosheba, and kept in concealment For six years (2 Kings 11:1-3). In the seventh year, led by Jehoiada, the priest, the people made him king and slew Athaliah (2 Kings 11:4-16). At his coronation the people destroyed and broke down the house of Baal, destroyed idols and slew the idolatrous priest (2 Kings 11:17-21). The young king, under the instruction of Jehoiada, the priest, honored The Lord (2 Kings 12:1,2). The most important event in the reign of Jehoash was the repairing of the house of the Lord (2 Kings 12:4-18 2 Chronicles 24:1-4). After the death of Jehoiada, the people and king departed from the Lord. The Lord sent prophets to them, but they would Not hear. Zechariah, the son of Jehoiada, was stoned to death (2 Chronicles 24:15-22). The closing years of his reign were characterized by suffering and sorrow, and he was finally assassinated by his own Servants (2 Kings 12:20,21; 2 Chronicles 24:23-26). Jehoash reigned forty years (2 Kings 12:1). He was contemporary with Jehu about twenty-one years (2 Kings 10:36; 2 Kings 12:1), Jehoahaz seventeen years (2 Kings 13:1; about two years (2 Kings 13:10).
Zechariah the Prophet. Zechariah, the son of Jehoiada, the Prophet, flourished during the reign of Jehoash (2 Chronicles 24:15-22).
Amaziah, the Eighth King. Jehoash was succeeded by his son Amaziah (2 Chronicles 24:27). Amaziah's reign was a mixture of good and evil, but the evil finally triumphed. He made great military Preparations and defeated the Edomites in battle. Subsequently he Challenged the king of Israel to war and was ingloriously defeated (2 Chronicles 25:1-28). Amaziah reigned twenty-nine years (2 Kings 12:19-21; 2 Kings 14:1,2). He was contemporary with Joash fourteen years (2 Kings 13:10; 2 Kings 14:1,2) and Jeroboam the Second fifteen years (2 Kings 14:23).
Interregnum. There was an interregnum of twelve years between The death of Amaziah and the succession of Uzziah (2 Kings 14:1,2,23 2 Kings 15:1,2).
Azariah or Uzziah, the Ninth King. Amaziah was succeeded by his Son Uzziah. His reign was similar to his predecessors. He had a large Standing army, and was successful in war because the Lord helped him (2 Chronicles 26:1-15). On account of his great success he became disobedient to the law of God, and attempted to perform the duties of Priest, and the Lord sent upon him the terrible disease of leprosy (2 Chronicles 26:16-21). Uzziah reigned fifty-two years (2 Kings 15:1,2; 2 Chronicles 26:1,3). He was contemporary Jeroboam the Second fourteen years (2 Kings 14:3; 2 Kings 15:1,2), Zachariah six months (2 Kings 15:8; month (2 Kings 15:13), Menahem ten years (2 Kings 15:23; one year (2 Kings 15:27).
Amos and Joel the Prophets. The prophet Amos flourished during The reigns of Uzziah king of Judah and Jeroboam the Second, king of Israel (Amos 1:1). It is thought that the prophet Joel also flourished about this time (Joel 1:1). The most important prophecy of Joel is that which relates to the beginning of the gospel (Joel 2:28-32 Acts 2:1-41).
Jotham, the Tenth King. Uzziah was succeeded by his son Jotham, Whose reign was distinguished by internal improvements and a successful Contest with the Ammonites. His success is attributed to his fidelity to The Lord his God (2 Chronicles 27:1-7). Jotham reigned sixteen years contemporaneously with Pekah (2 Kings 15:27,32,33).

After this Josiah pushed the work of reformation with great zeal and Success, and he finally destroyed that altar at Bethel and burned the Bones of the priests according to the predictions of the Prophet (2 Kings 23:1-20).

Smith's Bible Dictionary

Kingdom Of Judah

Extent. --When the disruption of Solomon's kingdom took place at Shechem, B.C. 975, only the tribe of Judah followed David, but almost immediately afterward the larger part of Benjamin joined Judah. A part, if no all, of the territory of Simeon, (1 Samuel 27:6; 1 Kings 19:3) comp. Josh 19:1 And of Dan, (2 Chronicles 11:10) comp. Josh 19:41,42 Was recognized as belonging to Judah; and in the reigns of Abijah and Asa the southern kingdom was enlarged by some additions taken out of the territory of Ephraim. (2 Chronicles 13:19; 15:8; 17:2) It is estimated that the territory of Judah contained about 3450 square miles. Advantages. --The kingdom of Judah possessed many advantages which secured for it a longer continuance than that of Israel. A frontier less exposed to powerful enemies, a soil less fertile, a population hardier and more united, a fixed and venerated centre of administration and religion, a hereditary aristocracy in the sacerdotal caste, an army always subordinate, a succession of kings which no revolution interrupted; so that Judah survived her more populous and more powerful sister kingdom by 135 years, and lasted from B.C. 975 to B.C. 536. History --The first three kings of Judah seem to have cherished the hope of re-establishing their authority over the ten tribes; for sixty years there was war between them and the kings of Israel. The victory achieved by the daring Abijah brought to Judah a temporary accession of territory. Asa appears to have enlarged it still further. Hanani's remonstrance, (2 Chronicles 16:7) prepares us for the reversal by Jehoshaphat of the policy which Asa pursued toward Israel and Damascus. A close alliance sprang up with strange rapidity between Judah and Israel. Jehoshaphat, active and prosperous, commanded the respect of his neighbors; but under Amaziah Jerusalem was entered and plundered by the Israelites. Under Uzziah and Jotham, Judah long enjoyed prosperity, till Ahaz became the tributary and vassal of Tiglath-pileser. Already in the fatal grasp of Assyria, Judah was yet spared for a checkered existence of almost another century and a half after the termination of the kingdom of Israel. The consummation of the ruin came upon its people in the destruction of the temple by the hand of Nebuzaradan, B.C. 536. There were 19 kings, all from the family of David. (Population. --We have a gage as to the number of the people at different periods in the number of soldiers.
