1 Reyes 11:4 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 11:4

And it came to pass, when Solomon was old
Toward the latter end of his reign, when he might be near sixty years of age; for Rehoboam his son and successor was forty one when he began to reign, ( 1 Kings 14:21 ) which is observed either as an aggravation of the sin of Solomon, that in his old age, when by long experience he might have been thought to be still wiser, and less lustful: and yet

that his wives turned away his heart after other gods;
or as pointing at the advantage his wives took of his age:

and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart
of David his father;
who, though guilty of many sins, never inclined to idolatry; his heart was always right in that point, and sincere in his worship, see ( Psalms 18:20-24 ) .

1 Reyes 11:4 In-Context

2 de las naciones acerca de las cuales el SE脩OR hab铆a dicho a los hijos de Israel: No os unir茅is a ellas, ni ellas se unir谩n a vosotros, porque ciertamente desviar谩n vuestro coraz贸n tras sus dioses. Pero Salom贸n se apeg贸 a ellas con amor.
3 Y tuvo setecientas mujeres que eran princesas y trescientas concubinas, y sus mujeres desviaron su coraz贸n.
4 Pues sucedi贸 que cuando Salom贸n era ya viejo, sus mujeres desviaron su coraz贸n tras otros dioses, y su coraz贸n no estuvo dedicado por entero al SE脩OR su Dios, como hab铆a estado el coraz贸n de David su padre.
5 Porque Salom贸n sigui贸 a Astoret, diosa de los sidonios, y a Milcom, 铆dolo abominable de los amonitas.
6 Salom贸n hizo lo malo a los ojos del SE脩OR, y no sigui贸 plenamente al SE脩OR, como le hab铆a seguido su padre David.
