Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Judah did evil in the sight of the Lord,.... At the end of three years, from the beginning of the reign of Rehoboam:
and they provoked him to jealousy, with their sins which they had committed, above all that their fathers had done; that is, with their idolatries; for they were the sins which moved the Lord to jealousy, and provoked the eyes of his glory; in which they had outdone not the ten tribes, but their fathers, in the times of Moses, Joshua, and the judges, and of their kings before their separation, Saul, David, and Solomon.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
This defection of Judah did not take place until Rehoboam’s fourth year (marginal reference).
They provoked him to jealousy - Compare Exodus 20:5; and on the force of the metaphor involved in the word, see Exodus 34:15 note.
