King Solomon, however, loved many foreign women besides Pharaoh's daughter—Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians and Hittites. They were from nations about which the LORD had told the Israelites, "You must not intermarry with them, because they will surely turn your hearts after their gods." Nevertheless, Solomon held fast to them in love. He had seven hundred wives of royal birth and three hundred concubines, and his wives led him astray. As Solomon grew old, his wives turned his heart after other gods, and his heart was not fully devoted to the LORD his God, as the heart of David his father had been. He followed Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and Molech the detestable god of the Ammonites. So Solomon did evil in the eyes of the LORD; he did not follow the LORD completely, as David his father had done. So God says 'The kingdom will be divided after you die. You're son won't reign over all Israel, but only some of it.' So after Solomon dies:( his son is crowned. BUT... He consults with his friends and says, "My dad laid on you a haevy burden, so I'm gonna make it bigger. So ten tribes said, 'UGH! Forget you!' And they go crown someone else.

So now that you know what's happening what do you think? Samuel warned them that Kings would bring trouble. When we don't listen to what God's saying, we pay consequences.
