The nations of which the Lord had said to the children of Israel, You are not to take wives from them and they are not to take wives from you; or they will certainly make you go after their gods: to these Solomon was united in love.
He had seven hundred wives, daughters of kings, and three hundred other wives; and through his wives his heart was turned away.
