Barnes' Notes
It appears from this verse that Rehoboam, notwithstanding that he encouraged, and perhaps secretly practiced, idolatry (I Kings 14:22-24, compare I Kings 15:3, I Kings 15:12; II Chronicles 12:1), maintained a public profession of faith in Yahweh, and attended in state the temple services. Compare the conduct of Solomon, I Kings 9:25.
