# was buried with them
This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "people buried him" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
# Naamah
This is the name of a woman. See how you translated this in [1 Kings 14:21](../14/21.md). (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/translate-names]])

"Abijah the son of Rehoboam"
# became king in his place
The phrase "in his place" is a metaphor meaning "instead of him." Alternate translation: "became king instead of Rehoboam" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
