2 Chronicles 11:20 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 11:20

And after he took Maacah the daughter of Absalom
Thought by some to be Absalom the son of David, his father's brother, and his uncle, and so married his cousin; but Absalom seems to have had but one daughter, whose name was Tamar, ( 2 Samuel 14:27 ) , and the name of this man is different from his; he is called Abishalom, ( 1 Kings 15:2 )

and Uriel of Gibeah;
( 2 Chronicles 13:2 ) , of the tribe of Benjamin, whereas Absalom was of the tribe of Judah:

which bare him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith:
Abijah the firstborn, and who was successor in the kingdom, is the same with Abijam, ( 1 Kings 14:31 ) of the rest we nowhere else read.

2 Chronicles 11:20 In-Context

18 And Rehoboam took as his wife Mahalath, the daughter of Jerimoth, the son of David and of Abihail, the daughter of Eliab, the son of Jesse;

19 And she had sons by him, Jeush, Shemariah, and Zaham.

20 And after her he took Maacah, the daughter of Absalom; and she had Abijah and Attai and Ziza and Shelomith by him.

21 Maacah, the daughter of Absalom, was dearer to Rehoboam than all his wives and his servant-wives: (for he had eighteen wives and sixty servant-wives, and was the father of twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.)

22 Rehoboam made Abijah, the son of Maacah, chief and ruler among his brothers, for it was his purpose to make him king.
