1 Kings 10; 1 Kings 11; 1 Kings 12; 1 Kings 13
The queen of Sheba visits Solomon. His wealth and wisdom exceed that of all the kings of the earth. Solomon marries non-Israelite women, and his wives turn his heart to the worship of false gods. The Lord stirs up adversaries against him, including Jeroboam, the son of Nebat. Ahijah promises Jeroboam that he will be the king of the ten tribes. Solomon dies and Rehoboam reigns in his stead. Rehoboam seeks to impose greater burdens upon the people. The ten tribes revolt and turn to Jeroboam. Jeroboam turns to idolatry and worships false gods. Jeroboam is smitten and then healed by a prophet from Judah. The prophet delivers his message, is led astray by a prophet from Bethel, and is slain by a lion for his disobedience. Jeroboam continues false worship in Israel.
