1 Reyes 11:1 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 11:1

But King Solomon loved many strange women
His love was a lustful and not a lawful one, and of women who were not only of foreign countries, but not his lawful wives, and these many:

together with the daughter of Pharaoh;
besides her, or as he loved her, and perhaps more; his sin was not that he loved her who was his lawful wife, but others with her; it is very probable she was a proselytess, and had no hand in turning him to idolatry, since we read not of any high place built for an Egyptian idol:

women of the Moabites, Anmonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites;
all of the neighbouring nations. Some think he did this with political views, to get intelligence of the state of those countries, or to abate and extinguish their enmity; but it rather seems to be the fruit of lust or pride.

1 Reyes 11:1 In-Context

1 EMPERO el rey Salom贸n am贸, 谩 m谩s de la hija de Fara贸n, muchas mujeres extranjeras: 谩 las de Moab, 谩 las de Amm贸n, 谩 las de Idumea, 谩 las de Sid贸n, y 谩 las Hetheas;
2 Gentes de las cuales Jehov谩 hab铆a dicho 谩 los hijos de Israel: No entrar茅is 谩 ellas, ni ellas entrar谩n 谩 vosotros; porque ciertamente har谩n inclinar vuestros corazones tras sus dioses. A 茅stas pues se junt贸 Salom贸n con amor.
3 Y tuvo setecientas mujeres reinas, y trescientas concubinas; y sus mujeres torcieron su coraz贸n.
4 Y ya que Salom贸n era viejo, sus mujeres inclinaron su coraz贸n tras dioses ajenos; y su coraz贸n no era perfecto con Jehov谩 su Dios, como el coraz贸n de su padre David.
5 Porque Salom贸n sigui贸 谩 Astaroth, diosa de los Sidonios, y 谩 Milcom, abominaci贸n de los Ammonitas.
