1 Kings 14:29 Summary
This verse, 1 Kings 14:29, tells us that there is more to know about King Rehoboam's life and reign than what is written in 1 Kings. The Bible points us to the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah for more information, which is also mentioned in 2 Chronicles 12:15. This reminds us that God's Word is rich and multifaceted, and there is always more to learn and discover, as seen in Deuteronomy 29:29. By seeking out a deeper understanding of God's Word, we can gain a deeper understanding of God's character and His plan for our lives, as stated in Jeremiah 29:11-13.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah mentioned in 1 Kings 14:29?
The Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah is a historical record of the kings of Judah, which is also referenced in 2 Chronicles 12:15, and it provides more details about the acts of Rehoboam and other kings of Judah.
Why does the Bible often refer to other sources for more information about a particular king's reign?
The Bible refers to other sources, such as the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah, to provide additional context and details about a king's reign, as seen in 1 Kings 14:29 and 2 Chronicles 12:15, and this practice is also mentioned in 1 Kings 11:41 and 2 Kings 8:23.
What can we learn from the fact that the Bible does not provide a detailed account of every event in a king's life?
The fact that the Bible does not provide a detailed account of every event in a king's life, as seen in 1 Kings 14:29, teaches us that God is more concerned with the king's spiritual condition and his relationship with Him, as stated in Deuteronomy 17:14-20, than with the details of his political or military accomplishments.

1 Kings 14:29 serves as a conclusion to the account of Rehoboam's reign, which is marked by the division of the kingdom and the beginning of the kingdoms of Judah and Israel, as seen in 1 Kings 12:1-33, and it sets the stage for the rest of the book of 1 Kings, which will explore the reigns of the kings of Israel and Judah, including their successes and failures, as seen in 1 Kings 15:1-34 and 1 Kings 16:1-34.
