1 KINGS
King David had grown very old and weak and his son, Adonijah, expected to replace him. Bathsheba and the prophet, Nathan, appeared before David requesting that Solomon be named king. David granted their request and Solomon became king of Israel and Judah. Then Adonijah feared for his life but was spared for a time. Later, he attempted to win the kingdom by trickery and was put to death.

Solomon asked The LORD for wisdom and The LORD said that he would give him wisdom, riches, and honor and it was so. Solomon wrote 3,000 proverbs and 1,005 songs.

Then, working with king Hiram, Solomon built a great temple to The LORD and followed that by building his own palace. The Ark of the Covenant, containing the two stone tablets placed there by Moses, was transferred to the temple.

Solomon had a great number of wives and concubines who, contrary to the wishes of The LORD, worshipped other gods. The LORD was angry with Soloman and said that the kingdom will be taken away from his son.

Solomon died and his son, Rehoboam, became king, and lost most of his kingdom to Jeroboam, who became an idolater also. Egypt conquered Jerusalem and there was constant war between Israel and Judah.

Following much war and killing and many evil kings, the great prophet, Elijah, came on the scene calling for three years of no rain. Elijah performed several miracles and the bad rule over the land continued.
