1Then, in the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, Abijam reigned over Judah.stylus2 Chronicles 13:1, 2 Chronicles 13:22, 1 Kings 14:31, 2 Chronicles 13:1, 2 Chronicles 13:222He reigned for three years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.stylus2 Chronicles 13:2, 2 Chronicles 13:2, 1 Kings 15:13, 2 Chronicles 11:20, 2 Chronicles 11:223And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him. Neither was his heart perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David, his father.stylus1 Kings 11:4, 1 Kings 11:4, Psalms 119:80, Psalms 119:80, 1 Kings 3:144But for the sake of David, the Lord his God gave to him a lamp in Jerusalem, so that he might raise up his son after him, and so that he might establish Jerusalem.stylus1 Kings 11:36, 1 Kings 11:36, 2 Chronicles 21:7, 2 Chronicles 21:7, 1 Kings 11:125For David had done what was right in the eyes of the Lord, and he had not declined from all of the things that he had instructed to him, during all the days of his life, except the matter of Uriah, the Hittite.stylus1 Kings 14:8, 1 Kings 14:8, 2 Samuel 11:15, 2 Samuel 11:17, 2 Samuel 11:156Now there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam during the entire time of his life.stylus1 Kings 14:30, 1 Kings 14:307And the rest of the words of Abijam, and all that he did, were these not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah? And there was fighting between Abijam and Jeroboam.stylus2 Chronicles 13:2, 2 Chronicles 13:22, 2 Chronicles 13:2, 2 Chronicles 13:22, 1 Kings 14:298And Abijam slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David. And Asa, his son, reigned in his place.stylus2 Chronicles 14:1, 2 Chronicles 14:1, 1 Kings 14:31, 1 Kings 14:31, 1 Chronicles 3:99Then, in the twentieth year of Jeroboam, the king of Israel, Asa reigned as king of Judah.stylus10And he reigned for forty-one years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.stylus1 Kings 15:2, 1 Kings 15:2, 2 Chronicles 13:2, 1 Kings 15:13, 2 Chronicles 11:2011And Asa did what was right before the sight of the Lord, just as his father David did.stylus2 Chronicles 14:2, 2 Chronicles 14:2, 2 Chronicles 15:17, 2 Chronicles 15:17, 2 Chronicles 16:712And he took away the effeminate from the land. And he purged all the filth of the idols, which his fathers had made.stylus1 Kings 22:46, 1 Kings 22:46, 1 Kings 14:23, 1 Kings 14:24, 1 Kings 14:2313Moreover, he also removed his mother, Maacah, from being the leader in the sacrifices of Priapus, and in his sacred grove which she had consecrated. And he destroyed his grotto. And he shattered the very indecent idol, and he burned it at the torrent Kidron.stylusExodus 32:20, Exodus 32:20, Deuteronomy 9:21, 2 Samuel 15:23, 2 Kings 23:614But the high places, he did not take away. Yet truly, the heart of Asa was perfect with the Lord during all his days.stylus1 Kings 22:43, 1 Kings 22:43, 1 Kings 8:61, 1 Kings 15:3, 1 Kings 8:6115And he brought the things that his father had sanctified and vowed back to the house of the Lord: the silver, and the gold, and the vessels.stylus1 Kings 7:51, 1 Kings 7:51, 1 Chronicles 26:26, 1 Chronicles 26:28, 2 Chronicles 15:1816Now there was war between Asa and Baasha, the king of Israel, during all their days.stylus1 Kings 15:32, 1 Kings 15:32, 2 Chronicles 16:1, 2 Chronicles 16:6, 1 Kings 15:617And Baasha, the king of Israel, ascended against Judah. And he built up Ramah, so that no one would be able to exit or enter from the side of Asa, the king of Judah.stylus1 Kings 12:27, 1 Kings 12:27, Joshua 18:25, 2 Chronicles 16:1, 2 Chronicles 16:618And so, Asa took all the silver and the gold which had remained in the treasuries of the house of the Lord, and in the treasuries of the house of the king, and he gave it into the hands of his servants. And he sent them to Benhadad, the son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, the king of Syria, who was living in Damascus, saying:stylus1 Kings 14:26, 2 Kings 12:18, 1 Kings 14:26, 2 Kings 12:18, 1 Kings 15:1519“There is a pact between me and you, and between my father and your father. For this reason, I have sent to you gifts of silver and of gold. And I ask you to go and break your pact with Baasha, the king of Israel, so that he may withdraw from me.”stylus2 Samuel 21:2, Ezekiel 17:13, Ezekiel 17:16, 2 Chronicles 16:7, Isaiah 31:120Benhadad, acquiescing to king Asa, sent the leaders of his army against the cities of Israel. And they struck Ijon, and Dan, and Abel, the house of Maacah, and all of Chinneroth, that is, all the land of Naphtali.stylus2 Kings 15:29, 2 Kings 15:29, Judges 18:29, Judges 18:29, Joshua 11:221And when Baasha had heard this, he ceased from fortifying Ramah, and he returned to Tirzah.stylus1 Kings 14:17, 1 Kings 14:17, 1 Kings 16:15, 1 Kings 16:18, 1 Kings 16:1522Then king Asa sent an announcement to all of Judah, saying, “Let no one be excused.” And they took away the stones from Ramah, and its timber, with which Baasha had fortified it. And from these things, king Asa built up Geba of Benjamin and Mizpah.stylusJoshua 21:17, Joshua 21:17, Joshua 18:24, Joshua 18:24, Joshua 18:2623Now all the rest of the words of Asa, and his entire strength, and all that he did, and the cities that he built, were these not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah? Yet truly, in the time of his old age, he was afflicted in his feet.stylus2 Chronicles 16:11, 2 Chronicles 16:14, 1 Kings 15:7, 1 Kings 15:8, 1 Kings 14:2924And he slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the city of David, his father. And Jehoshaphat, his son, reigned in his place.stylusMatthew 1:8, Matthew 1:8, 1 Kings 22:41, 1 Kings 22:43, 1 Kings 22:4125Yet truly, Nadab, the son of Jeroboam, reigned over Israel, in the second year of Asa, the king of Judah. And he reigned over Israel for two years.stylus1 Kings 14:20, 1 Kings 14:20, 1 Kings 14:12, 1 Kings 14:1226And he did what is evil in the sight of the Lord. And he walked in the ways of his father and in his sins, by which he caused Israel to sin.stylus1 Kings 14:16, 1 Kings 14:16, 1 Kings 15:34, 1 Kings 15:30, 1 Kings 15:3427Then Baasha, the son of Ahijah, from the house of Issachar, set an ambush against him, and he struck him down at Gibbethon, which is a city of the Philistines. For indeed, Nadab and all of Israel were laying siege to Gibbethon.stylus1 Kings 14:14, Joshua 21:23, Joshua 19:44, 1 Kings 14:14, Joshua 21:2328And so Baasha killed him in the third year of Asa, the king of Judah, and he reigned in his place.stylusDeuteronomy 32:35, Deuteronomy 32:3529And when he had reigned, he struck down the entire house of Jeroboam. He did not leave behind even one soul from his offspring, until he had wiped him away, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by the hand of Ahijah, the Shilonite,stylus1 Kings 14:9, 1 Kings 14:16, 1 Kings 14:9, 1 Kings 14:16, 2 Kings 19:2530because of the sin of Jeroboam, which he had committed, and by which he had caused Israel to sin, and because of the offense by which he had provoked the Lord, the God of Israel.stylus1 Kings 15:26, 1 Kings 15:26, 1 Kings 14:22, 1 Kings 14:9, 1 Kings 14:1631But the rest of the words of Nadab, and all that he did, were these not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?stylus1 Kings 14:19, 1 Kings 14:19, 1 Kings 16:5, 1 Kings 16:20, 1 Kings 16:2732And there was war between Asa and Baasha, the king of Israel, during all their days.stylus1 Kings 15:16, 1 Kings 15:1633In the third year of Asa, the king of Judah, Baasha, the son of Ahijah, reigned over all of Israel, at Tirzah, for twenty-four years.stylus1 Kings 16:8, 1 Kings 16:834And he did evil in the sight of the Lord. And he walked in the ways of Jeroboam, and in his sins, by which he caused Israel to sin.stylus1 Kings 15:26, 1 Kings 15:26, 1 Kings 14:16, 1 Kings 12:28, 1 Kings 12:29
