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 Jeroboamâs 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 âYahweh is my father,â or âYahweh is my desireâ Job 34:36.

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.
