1. Kongebok 15,8

6 Og det var pågående konflikt mellom Rehabeam og Jeroboam gjennom hele hans liv.

7 Når det gjelder de andre gjerningene til Abiam og alt han oppnådde, er de ikke nedskrevet i Krønikeboken til Judas konger? Og det var krig mellom Abiam og Jeroboam.

Abiam hvilte med sine forfedre, og de begravde ham i Davids by; og hans sønn Asa etterfulgte ham som konge.

9 I det tjuende året av Jeroboams regjering over Israel, ble Asa konge over Juda.

10 Han regjerte i førtién år i Jerusalem, og hans mor var Maaka, Abisaloms datter.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
