About

King of Judah and son of Rehoboam, also called Abijam in 1 Kings 15. He reigned for three years but continued his father's pattern of unfaithfulness to God. Despite his failures, God preserved his dynasty for David's sake. The name Abijah also appears in the Benjaminite genealogy of 1 Chronicles 7 as a son of Becher, but the king is the more prominent figure.
