Contextual Overview
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
am 3075, bc 929
In the twenty: Baasha began to reign in the third year of Asa, and reigned 24 years; yet he died and was succeeded by Elah in the 26th year of Asa; and, in like manner, Elah, who began to reign in the 26th year of Asa, and was killed in the 27th, is said to have reigned two years. Thus it is evident that a part of a year is calculated as a whole year. In the Chinese annals, the whole year in which a king dies is ascribed to his reign, the years of the succeeding king being reckoned only from the beginning of the following year. 1 Kings 16:8

Abram's wife Sarai had not borne any children for him, but she owned an Egyptian slave named Hagar.
Sarai said to Abram, "Since the Lord has prevented me from bearing children, go to my slave; perhaps through her I can build a family." And Abram agreed to what Sarai said.
He slept with Hagar, and she became pregnant. When she realized that she was pregnant, she treated her mistress with contempt.
Then Sarai said to Abram, "You are responsible for my suffering! I put my slave in your arms, and ever since she saw that she was pregnant, she has treated me with contempt. May the Lord judge between me and you."
He said, "Hagar, slave of Sarai, where have you come from and where are you going?" She replied, "I'm running away from my mistress Sarai."
Now, may my lord the king please hear the words of his servant: If it is the Lord who has incited you against me, then may He accept an offering.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
In the twenty sixth year of Asa king of Judah began Elah the son of Baasha to reign over Israel in Tirzah, two years. Not complete, for he died in the twenty seventh of Asa, 1 Kings 16:10 he reigned just the time that Nadab the son of Jeroboam did, 1 Kings 15:25.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Two years - i. e., More than one year, or, at any rate, some portion of two distinct years (compare 1 Kings 16:10).
