2 Chronicles 8:11 In-Context

9 However, Solomon didn't force the Israelites to work as slaves; instead, they became warriors, chief officers, and the commanders of his chariots and cavalry.
10 And Solomon had two hundred fifty chief officers who were in charge of the people.
11 Solomon brought Pharaoh's daughter from David's City to a palace he had built for her, because he said, "My wife mustn't live in the palace of Israel's King David, because the places where the LORD's chest has been are holy."
12 Then Solomon offered entirely burned offerings to the LORD on the LORD's altar that Solomon had built in front of the porch,
13 as each day required, according to the commandment of Moses for sabbaths, new moon festivals, and the three annual festivals—Unleavened Bread, Weeks, and Booths.
