Gill's Notes on the Bible

So Abijah slept with his fathers, 1 Kings 15:8

and Asa his son reigned in his stead; in his days the land was quiet ten years; the Targum is, the land of Israel; but much better the Septuagint, the land of Judah; these ten years, in which it had rest from war, were the first three years of Asa's reign, and the first seven of Baasha's, according to Jarchi, and which seems right; after which there was war between them all their days, see 1 Kings 15:32.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Asa his son reigned - If Rehoboam was (1 Kings 12:8 note) not more than 21 years old at his accession, Asa, when he mounted the throne, must have been a mere boy, not more than 10 or 11 years of age.

The land was quiet ten years - The great blow struck by Abijah 2 Chronicles 13:15-19, his alliance with Syria 1 Kings 15:19, and the rapid succession of sovereigns in Israel during the earlier part of Asa’s reign 1 Kings 15:25-33, would naturally prevent disturbance on the part of the northern kingdom. The tender age of Asa himself would be a bar to warlike enterprises on the part of Judah.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XIV

Asa succeeds his father Abijah, reigns piously, and has peace

for ten years, 1.

He makes a great reformation in Judah, and builds cities of

defense, 2-7.

His military strength, 8.

He is attacked by Zerah the Ethiopian, with an immense army;

Asa cries to the Lord, attacks the Ethiopians, and gives them

a total overthrow, 9-12.

He takes several of their cities, their cattle, &c., and

returns to Jerusalem, laden with spoils, 13-15.

NOTES ON CHAP. XIV

Verse 2 Chronicles 14:1. The land was quiet ten years. — Calmet thinks these years should be counted from the fifth to the fifteenth of Asa's reign.
