Gill's Notes on the Bible

But Abijah waxed mighty,.... In his kingdom, increasing in riches and numbers, power and authority, and in his family:

and married fourteen wives, and begat twenty and two sons and sixteen daughters; not after the above battle, nor since he began to reign; for he reigned but three years; but he, no doubt, married wives and had children before he came to the throne, as he might have others after.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 13:21. Married fourteen wives — Probably he made alliances with the neighbouring powers, by taking their daughters to him for wives.
