1 Kings 15:19 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

There is a league between me and thee In the latter end of Solomon's reign, the Syrians were enemies to him, 1 Kings 11:24-25: but when he was dead, and the kingdom was divided, both Judah and Israel made peace with the Syrians; having enough to do to settle themselves in their own dominions. Behold, I have sent thee a present, come, break thy league with Baasha It is strange that Asa's conscience would suffer him, or that he, a professor of the true religion, was not ashamed to be guilty of such a wicked piece of policy as to tempt with money even a heathen to break his word, or league rather, which, no doubt, he had sworn to observe. This certainly was not the way to recommend the worship and service of Jehovah to the heathen nations around.
