Gill's Notes on the Bible
At that time Abijah, the son of Jeroboam, fell sick. Being smitten of God with some disease, as a punishment of Jeroboam's sin; how long this was after the above things were done cannot be said.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
At that time - The phrase here connects the narrative which follows with Jeroboam’s persistence in his evil courses. The event related is the first judgment upon him for his obduracy, the beginning of the cutting off of his house from the face of the earth.
Abijah - We see by this name that Jeroboam did not intend to desert the worship of Yahweh, since its signification is “Yahweh is my father,” or “Yahweh is my desire” Job 34:36.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XIV
Abijah, son of Jeroboam, falls sick, 1.
Jeroboam sends his wife disguised to Ahijah the prophet, and
with her a present, to inquire concerning his son, 2-4.
Ahijah discovers her by a Divine intimation and delivers to her
a heavy message concerning the destruction of Jeroboam's house,
and the death of her son, 5-16.
The child dies, according to the prediction of Ahijah, 17.
Jeroboam's reign and death, 18-20.
Rehoboam's bad reign, and the apostasy of Judah, 21-24.
Shishak, king of Egypt, invades Judea, spoils the temple, and
takes away the golden shields made by Solomon; instead of which
Rehoboam makes others of brass, 25-28.
Rehoboam's reign and death, 29-31.
NOTES ON CHAP. XIV
Verse 1 Kings 14:1. Abijah - fell sick — This was but a prelude to the miseries which fell on the house of Jeroboam; but it was another merciful warning, intended to turn him from his idolatry and wickedness.
