How many wives did King Solomon have? He had seven hundred wives! And how many concubines did he have? He had three hundred concubines! So, not only was he wise, he was also insatiable. All his wives were foreign princesses who brought their idols with them. Some of his wives were able to convince Solomon to make temples for their idols which he also worshipped! Thus, Solomon eventually betrayed God when he turned to the idols of his numerous wives. When this happened, God became displeased with Solomon so all of his 700 wives started to nag him about every little thing. “Why are you late for dinner tonight, Shlomo?” he was asked this question 700 times a night, and he had to respond 700 times a night, making him miserable for the rest of his shortened life. Don’t forget God said that he would continue to be wise and live long if he kept the commandments of God. By turning to his wives’ idols he broke the 1st commandment: “I am the Lord, your God, and you will have no other gods before me!” Was Solomon also committing adultery? No, because all the 700 women were his wives, he was married to them. You cannot commit adultery with your own wife! That’s how wise he was. How about fornicating with his 300 concubines? He owned his concubines as property. It is legally impossible to fornicate with property, that’s how wise he was.
Now let’s pretend that King Solomon did not break the first commandment. He might still be living today as the King of the world because of God’s promise to him of longevity. If you are having problems with too much debt today, you might go to him and ask him if you should seek bankruptcy relief. Solomon is not around anymore, but our God is. So, just to pray to Him and ask Him for wisdom like King Solomon but don’t ask Him for 700 wives. That’s not a wise idea nowadays.
