Commentary
1 Kings 11 is a chapter that focuses on the life of King Solomon and his many wives. It begins by noting that Solomon loved many foreign women, which was a violation of the Lord's commandment. This is a major theme throughout the chapter, as it is clear that Solomon's foreign wives had a major influence on his life and his decisions. The chapter then goes on to describe how the Lord was angry with Solomon for his disobedience and how he had to suffer the consequences of his actions. The Lord then sent the prophet Ahijah to tell Solomon that he would be punished for his disobedience and that the kingdom would be divided after his death. The chapter then goes on to describe how Solomon's foreign wives had a major influence on his life and his decisions. They led him to worship other gods and to build temples to them. This was a major violation of the Lord's commandment and it was clear that the Lord was displeased with Solomon's actions. The chapter ends with the Lord's judgment on Solomon and the division of the kingdom after his death. It is a reminder to us that we must obey the Lord's commands and not be led astray by our own desires. We must remember that the Lord is always watching and will punish us for our disobedience.
