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 for David's sake Jehovah his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, setting up his son after him, and establishing Jerusalem;
5 because David did that which was right in the sight of Jehovah, and turned not aside from anything that he commanded him all the days of his life, except in the matter of Urijah the Hittite.
6 And there had been war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.
7 And the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
8 And Abijam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David. And Asa his son reigned in his stead.
