Melachim Alef 15:8 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 15:8

And Abijam slept with his fathers
That is, died as they did:

and they buried him in the city of David,
in the sepulchre of his royal ancestors, David, Solomon, and Rehoboam:

and Asa his son reigned in his stead;
who perhaps was the eldest of his twenty two sons, ( 2 Chronicles 13:21 ) .

Melachim Alef 15:8 In-Context

6 And there was milchamah between Rechav‘am and Yarov‘am all the days of his life.

7 Now the rest of the acts of Aviyam, and all that he did, are they not written in the Sefer Divrei HaYamim L’Malkhei Yehudah? And there was milchamah between Aviyam and Yarov‘am.

8 And Aviyam slept with his avot; and they buried him in Ir Dovid; and Asa Bno reigned in his place.

9 And in the twentieth year of Yarov‘am Melech Yisroel, Asa began to reign as Melech over Yehudah.

10 And forty and one years reigned he in Yerushalayim. And shem immo was Ma’achah Bat Avishalom.
