Question
What punishment did God give Solomon for his unwise— Policies?Options
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
King Solomon was known for his wisdom but towards the end of his reign, he made some unwise decisions that displeased God. The question asks about the punishment that God gave him for these unwise policies.
Option A suggests that God empowered Jeroboam to conquer Solomon as punishment. This is not the correct answer.
Option B suggests that God caused Rezon to demolish the high place which Solomon built. This is also not the correct answer.
Option C suggests that God raised up Hadad, the Edomite, as an adversary against Solomon. This is not the correct answer either.
Option D is the correct answer. God punished Solomon by tearing the kingdom from him and giving it to his servant. This is recorded in 1 Kings 11:11-13.
It is important to note that even though Solomon made unwise decisions, God still loved him. In fact, God appeared to Solomon twice and had a special relationship with him. However, there were consequences for Solomon's actions.
This question is an example of how God can punish his children when they disobey him. It shows the importance of making wise decisions and obeying God's commands.

That's the scripture passage.
With humility, I disregard the option picked as the correct answer in this question, simply because, God only told him that he would tear the kingdom not from him but from his son. Tho, God, attempted tearing or taking the kingdom from him but He later pardoned him for the sake of his father David, hence, God didn't but raised Hadad against Him. Furthermore, should you need the Bible reference... 1king 11:13-14.
