Solomon is best known for the great wisdom the Lord gave to him. Under his leadership, the nation of Israel experienced expansive growth. David secured the nation, but it was Solomon who built it into a vast territory. Solomon built the Lord's Temple--among many other building projects throughout the land. Despite his wisdom, Solomon was led astray into idolatry by his 1,000 wives and concubines. In anger, the Lord disciplined Solomon by raising up enemies against him. In punishment, the Lord will tear the kingdom in half under the reign of Solomon's son, Rehoboam.
