Verse 31. Roboam. He deserved some commendation for procuring provisions, and fortifying his dominion; (2 Chronicles 11:5, 12.) but was a prince devoid of wisdom and religion. He married 18 wives and 60 concubines. The son of Maacha, his most favourite queen, succeeded him, after he had reigned seventeen years, and lived fifty-eight. Calmet.—Semeias and Addo wrote his history. 2 Chronicles 12:15.
