1 Kings 15:6 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 15:6

And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of
his life.
] Not the days of Rehoboam, though that was true, and is observed, ( 1 Kings 14:30 ) , but all the days of Abijam, before he came to the throne, and in which, when a young man, he was concerned, and which still continued between him and Jeroboam; though some think he is called by his father's name, as Rehoboam is called David, ( 1 Kings 12:16 ) .

1 Kings 15:6 In-Context

4 But because of David, the Lord gave him a light in Jerusalem, making his sons king after him, so that Jerusalem might be safe;

5 Because David did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, and never in all his life went against his orders, but only in the question of Uriah the Hittite.

7 Now the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.

8 Then Abijam went to rest with his fathers, and they put him into the earth in the town of David: and Asa his son became king in his place.
