1 Kings 15:8

1Ki 15:8 And Abijam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead.

Ver. 8. And Asa his son reigned. ] This was a good king. But it is wonder how he should be good, of the seed of Abijam, of the soil of Maachah, both wicked, both idolatrous. Thus we have seen, saith a reverend man, a fair flower spring out of dung, and a well-fruited tree rise out of a sour stock.
