2. 1 Kings 11:1-4 But King Solomon loved many foreign
women, as well as the daughter of Pharaoh: women
of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians,
and Hittites-- (2) from the nations of whom the LORD
had said to the children of Israel, "You shall not
intermarry with them, nor they with you. Surely they
will turn away your hearts after their gods."
Solomon clung to these in love. (3) And he had seven
hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred
concubines; and his wives turned away his heart. (4)
For it was so, when Solomon was old, that his wives
turned his heart after other gods; and his heart was
not loyal to the LORD his God, as was the heart of his
father David.
