And when he humbled himself, the wrath of the LORD turned from him that he would not destroy him altogether: and also in Judah things went well.

But yet because they were humbled, the wrath of the Lord turned away from them, and they were not utterly destroyed: for even in Juda there were found good works.

SEV Biblia, Chapter 12:12

Y cuando él se humilló, la ira del SEÑOR se apartó de él, para no destruirlo del todo; y también en Judá las cosas fueron bien.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 12. And when he humbled himself , etc.] That is, Rehoboam; or broke his heart, as the Targum, was of a contrite spirit seemingly, for it was merely external: the
wrath of the Lord turned from him ; which appeared by the departure of Shishak’s army: that he would not destroy him altogether ; or make an utter destruction of him and his people: and also in Judah things went well ; prospered and succeeded after this affair of Shishak was over: or “in Judah there were good things” f41 ; there were some good men, priests, Levites, and many of the common people, that did good things, kept up and abode by the pure worship and service of God; and which was another reason why the Lord would not destroy them altogether now, (see Genesis 18:31,32).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Rehoboam,
forsaking the Lord, is punished.

--When Rehoboam was so strong that he supposed he had nothing to fea from Jeroboam, he cast off his outward profession of godliness. It is very common, but very lamentable, that men, who in distress or danger or near death, seem much engaged in seeking and serving God, thro aside all their religion when they have received a mercifu deliverance. God quickly brought troubles upon Judah, to awaken the people to repentance, before their hearts were hardened. Thus it becomes us, when we are under the rebukes of Providence, to justif God, and to judge ourselves. If we have humbled hearts under humblin providences, the affliction has done its work; it shall be removed, or the property of it be altered. The more God's service is compared with other services, the more reasonable and easy it will appear. Are the laws of temperance thought hard? The effects of intemperance will be found much harder. The service of God is perfect liberty; the servic of our lusts is complete slavery. Rehoboam was never rightly fixed in his religion. He never quite cast off God; yet he engaged not his hear to seek the Lord. See what his fault was; he did not serve the Lord because he did not seek the Lord. He did not pray, as Solomon, for wisdom and grace; he did not consult the word of God, did not seek to that as his oracle, nor follow its directions. He made nothing of his religion, because he did not set his heart to it, nor ever came up to steady resolution in it. He did evil, because he never was determine for good __________________________________________________________________
