Bible Comments

And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And his mother's name was Naamah an Ammonitess. And Abijam his son reigned in his stead.

And his mother's name was Naamah an Ammonitess. This is a repetition of what was previously said (see the notes at 1 Kings 14:21). [The Septuagint omits this here; but in 1 Kings 12:24 of that version, which corresponds to this verse of the Hebrew text, it is added, Naanan, thugateer Ana huiou Naas basileoos huioon Ammoon, daughter of Ana (Hanun), the son of Nahash, king of the Ammonites.]
