So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and for three years they made Rehoboam the son of Solomon secure, for he walked for three years in the way of David and Solomon — The immigrant faithful 'strengthened the kingdom of Judah' (וַיְחַזְּקוּ אֶת־מַלְכוּת־יְהוּדָה). For three years, Rehoboam followed David and Solomon's ways (שְׁלוֹשׁ שָׁנִים הָלַךְ בִּדְרֶךְ דָּוִד וּשְׁלֹמֹה). The faithful remnant's arrival and Rehoboam's initial fidelity created stability.
