there was war.Instead of Rehoboam fourteen MSS., the Arabic, and some copies of the Targum, read Abijam.
The Syriac has "Abia, the son of Rehoboam;" and the Editio Princeps of the Vulgate has Abia. This is doubtless the true reading, as otherwise it would be an unnecessary repetition of ch. 14:30, and a repetition which interrupts the history of Abijah:
(see 2 Ch 13:3, etc.)
1 Kings 14:30• 30And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days. (1 Kings 14:30)
