Contextual Overview

21 Solomon's son Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king of Judah. His mother was Naamah from Ammon. Rehoboam ruled in Jerusalem for seventeen years. (The Lord had chosen that city from all the land of Israel as the place where he would be worshiped.) 22 The people of Judah did what the Lord said was wrong. Their sins made the Lord very angry, even more angry than he had been at their ancestors. 23 The people built stone pillars and places to worship gods and Asherah idols on every high hill and under every green tree. 24 There were even male prostitutes in the land. They acted like the people who had lived in the land before the Israelites. They had done many evil things, and God had taken the land away from them. 25 During the fifth year Rehoboam was king, Shishak king of Egypt attacked Jerusalem. 26 He took the treasures from the Temple of the Lord and the king's palace. He took everything, even the gold shields Solomon had made. 27 So King Rehoboam made bronze shields to put in their place and gave them to the commanders of the guards for the palace gates. 28 Whenever the king went to the Temple of the Lord , the guards carried the shields. Later, they would put them back in the guardroom. 29 Everything else King Rehoboam did is written in the book of the history of the kings of Judah. 30 There was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam the whole time.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And King Rehoboam made in their stead brazen shields,.... For the king of Egypt had so stripped him of his gold, that he was not able to replace golden ones:

and committed them into the hands of the chief of the guard; or "runners" p, that went before the king, or attended him as his bodyguard when he went abroad:

which kept the door of the king's house; which kept guard night and day in their turns.
