1 Kings 11-14

Summary

Solomon dies and his foolish son, Rehoboam, ascends the throne of Israel. The community leaders approach him, begging Rehoboam to lighten the severe taxes and labor requirements set upon the people by his father, however, he refuses and promises to increase them. This leads to a revolt, separating the country into two parts, with eleven of the twelve tribes being lead by Jeroboam, who leads the people of Israel into a religion based upon convenience.
