1 Kings 15:32 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 15:32

And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all
their days.
] For being a wicked man, and an idolater, Asa had no respect for him, though he had slain the family of Jeroboam; nor had Baasha any regard to Judah, nor to the worship of God at Jerusalem, so that there was no good understanding between them, but frequent acts of hostility, see ( 1 Kings 15:16 ) .

33 Baasha became king of Israel in Tirzah. It was in the third year that Asa was king of Judah. Baasha ruled for 24 years. He was the son of Ahijah.
