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, (<111430>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, (<111216>1 Kings 12:16).
