2 Chronicles 11:21-23

Evangelical Heritage Version

²¹ Rehoboam loved Ma’akah, the granddaughter of Absalom, more than any of his other wives and concubines. He took eighteen wives and sixty concubines and fathered twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.

²² Rehoboam appointed Abijah, the son of Ma’akah, as crown prince among his brothers, because he was going to make him king. ²³ Rehoboam acted wisely and dispersed his sons throughout all the areas of Judah and Benjamin, in all the fortified cities. He provided them with abundant provisions and obtained many wives for them.
