Contextual Overview

²¹ Now Rehoboam, Solomon's son, reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was 41 years old when he became king; he reigned 17 years in Jerusalem, the city where Yahweh had chosen from all the tribes of Israel to put His name. Rehoboam's mother's name was Naamah the Ammonite. ²² Judah did what was evil in the Lord 's eyes. They provoked Him to jealous anger more than all that their ancestors had done with the sins they committed. ²³ They also built for themselves high places, sacred pillars, and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every green tree; ²⁴ there were even male cult prostitutes in the land. They imitated all the detestable practices of the nations the Lord had dispossessed before the Israelites. ²⁵ In the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt went to war against Jerusalem. ²⁶ He seized the treasuries of the Lord 's temple and the treasuries of the royal palace. He took everything. He took all the gold shields that Solomon had made. ²⁷ King Rehoboam made bronze shields in their place and committed them into the care of the captains of the royal escorts who guarded the entrance to the king's palace. ²⁸ Whenever the king entered the Lord 's temple, the royal escorts would carry the shields, then they would take them back to the royal escorts' armory. ²⁹ The rest of the events of Rehoboam's reign, along with all his accomplishments, are written about in the Historical Record of Judah's Kings. ³⁰ There was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam throughout their reigns.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days. For though Rehoboam did not enter into an offensive war, and attack the children of Israel, being dissuaded from it by Shemaiah the prophet in the name of the Lord, yet he might maintain a defensive war; and though there were no pitched battles between them as afterwards, in his son's time, yet there might be skirmishes and bickerings on the borders of their countries.
