Divrey Hayamim Bais 11:18 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 11:18

And Rehoboam took him Mahalath, the daughter of Jerimoth, the
son of David, to wife
Of which son of David we nowhere else read; perhaps he might be the son of one of his concubines, or he might have two names:

and Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse;
who was David's eldest brother. ( 1 Samuel 17:13 1 Samuel 17:28 ) . She must be a granddaughter or great-granddaughter of his.

16 And after them from all the Shivtei Yisroel such as set their hearts to seek Hashem Elohei Yisroel came to Yerushalayim, to sacrifice unto Hashem Elohei Avoteihem.
17 So they strengthened the Malchut Yehudah, and made Rechav’am ben Sh’lomo strong, shanim shalosh. For shanim shalosh they walked in the Derech Dovid u’Sh’lomo.
18 And Rechav’am took him Machalat bat Yerimot Ben Dovid as isha, and Avichayil bat Eliav ben Yishai,
19 Which bore him banim: Yeush, and Shemaryah, and Zaham.
20 And after her he took Ma’achah bat Avshalom, who bore him Aviyah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shlomit.
