In 2 Chronicles 11:21, Rehoboam loved Maacah more than his other wives — explaining why her son Abijah is listed first here.

2 Chronicles 12:16 records Abijah succeeding Rehoboam, confirming the son of Maacah from 11:20 became king.

In 2 Chronicles 13:2, Abijah's mother is named Maacah daughter of Uriel — the same Maacah listed here as daughter of Absalom.

1 Kings 15:1 is the parallel account of Abijam (Abijah) becoming king, confirming the son of Maacah listed here.

In 1 Kings 15:2, Abijam's mother is named Maacah daughter of Abishalom — the same Maacah called daughter of Absalom here.

Matthew 1:7 includes Abijah in Jesus' genealogy, confirming his place as Rehoboam's son and descendant of David.

1 Kings 15:10 names Maacah as Asa's mother (or queen mother), linking to the same Maacah who bore Abijah in 11:20.
