Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

2 Chronicles 13:19

_ _ Abijah pursued after Jeroboam, and took cities from him — This sanguinary action widened the breach between the people of the two kingdoms. Abijah abandoned his original design of attempting the subjugation of the ten tribes, contenting himself with the recovery of a few border towns, which, though lying within Judah or Benjamin, had been alienated to the new or northern kingdom. Among these was Beth-el, which, with its sacred associations, he might be strongly desirous to wrest from profanation.

Matthew Henry's Commentary
