Verses on 4. Called Michaiah, mother of Abijam and grandmother of Asa

  1. 10And forty and one years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom.

    11And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, as did David his father.

    12And he took away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.

    13And also Maachah his mother, even her he removed from being queen, because she had made an idol in a grove; and Asa destroyed her idol, and burnt it by the brook Kidron.

  2. 20And after her he took Maachah the daughter of Absalom; which bare him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.

    21And Rehoboam loved Maachah the daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines: (for he took eighteen wives, and threescore concubines; and begat twenty and eight sons, and threescore daughters.)

    22And Rehoboam made Abijah the son of Maachah the chief, to be ruler among his brethren: for he thought to make him king.

    23And he dealt wisely, and dispersed of all his children throughout all the countries of Judah and Benjamin, unto every fenced city: and he gave them victual in abundance. And he desired many wives.
