Contextual Overview
1 In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam the son of Nabat, Abijam became king over Judah. 2 He ruled for three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom. 3 And he walked in all the sins which his father had done before him. He was not faithful to the Lord with all his heart, like the heart of his father David. 4 But the Lord his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem because of David. He gave him a son to rule after him and to keep Jerusalem strong. 5 Because David did what was right in the eyes of the Lord. He did not turn away from anything the Lord told him to do all the days of his life, except in what happened with Uriah the Hittite. 6 And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life. 7 Now the rest of the acts of Abijam and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam. 8 Abijam died and they buried him in the city of David. His son Asa became king in his place.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Abijam slept with his fathers,.... That is, died as they did:
and they buried him in the city of David, in the sepulchre of his royal ancestors, David, Solomon, and Rehoboam:
and Asa his son reigned in his stead; who perhaps was the eldest of his twenty two sons, 2 Chronicles 13:21.
