![]() A servant of the king, Jeroboam son of Nebat was a brave warrior who oversaw one of Solomon’s forced labour units. “This became the rise of the Aramean kingdom, which, by the end of the ninth century BC, became the most powerful nation in the Levant.” Jeroboamīut it was the final adversary the Lord raised up against the son of David that was the greatest threat because he was within Solomon’s own ranks. ![]() ![]() Whatever the case, Rezon became an outlaw and formed and commanded an army of bandits who helped him seize Damascus and become king of Aram. But Rezon seems to have either escaped from the battle or else fled from King Hadadezer later, unwilling to submit to imperial rule from Jerusalem. Apparently while serving as a commander under King Hadadezer of Zobah David attacked and defeated Zobah. Like Hadad, Rezon’s revenge would also be motivated by David’s exploits. When David eventually died, Hadad returned to Edom as its king where he would vehemently oppose Solomon.Ī second enemy God raised up against Solomon was Rezon. And if that wasn’t enough, Pharaoh even made him a part of his family by giving him the Queen’s sister as a wife. When Hadad arrived in Egypt he found tremendous favour with the Pharaoh who not only gave him food and provisions, but also a house and land. Of royal descent, he was forced to flee to Egypt as a little boy during King David’s eradication of all Edomite males. One of these adversaries was Hadad the Edomite. Though God chose not to destroy Solomon or to take the kingdom away from him presently, the Lord did raise up strong adversaries against him. And the result was exactly as God had predicted: “his wives turned his heart away after other gods and his heart was not completely devoted to the Lord his God, as was the heart of his father David” (1 Kings 11:4). And he did so with great defiance as the Bible records that he had a staggering 700 wives and 300 concubines. OMNI.2 has since added programming for the Urdu and Turkish language communities.Despite the fact that God expressly warned King Solomon not to multiply wives, that is precisely what he did.
