Abijah became king of Judah in Jeroboam's eighteenth year as king of Israel,
Then Rehoboam married Maacah the daughter of Absalom. Their sons were Abijah, Attai, Ziza, and Shelomith.
Everything else Rehoboam did while he was king, including a history of his family, is written in the records of the two prophets, Shemaiah and Iddo. During Rehoboam's rule, he and King Jeroboam of Israel were constantly at war.
When Rehoboam died, he was buried beside his ancestors in Jerusalem, and his son Abijah became king.
