Solomon’s Kingdom
Solomon’s KingdomDavid wanted to build grand temple there
but died before its completion.
His son Solomon
finished the project.
Solomon was known for his proverbs, or wise sayings.
Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the LORD
is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge
of the holy is understanding.
Solomon’s Proverbs
1. Wise children make their fathers proud of them; foolish ones bring their mothers grief.
2. Wealth you get by dishonesty will do you no good, but honesty can save your life.
3. The Lord will not let good people go hungry, but he will keep the wicked from getting what they want.
4. Being lazy will make you poor, but hard work will make you rich.
5. A sensible person gathers the crops when they are ready; it is a disgrace to sleep through the time of harvest.
Solomon’s Proverbs6. Good people will receive blessings.
The words of the wicked hide a violent nature.
7. Good people will be remembered as a blessing, but the wicked will soon be forgotten.
8. Sensible people accept good advice. People who talk foolishly will come to ruin.
9. Honest people are safe and secure, but the dishonest will be caught.
10. Someone who holds back the truth causes trouble, but one who openly criticizes works for peace.

1. high taxes for buildings 2. making
young men work in armies of neighboring
countries.

tribes set up their own nation in the north called
The Kingdom of Israel, and the capital was Samaria.

What caused the fall of Israel?
722 B.C. Assyrians conquered 10 tribes of Israel
and scattered them
Many lost their heritage and are
called the “lost tribes of Israel.”
Assyrians settled the area and became known as Samaritans (half Jew, half Assyrian)
They read Torah and still offered sacrifices and
followed laws
The people of Judah looked down on them because they thought true
sacrifices had to be offered at the temple in Jerusalem.

Chaldeans conquered Egypt in 605 B.C. and became
new rulers of Judah (but allowed them to keep their
king and pay tribute)
