2 Chronicles 8-12: The Queen of Sheba

These chapters explore Solomon’s later reign and his worldwide reputation for wisdom and wealth. The Queen of Sheba visited Solomon to test his wisdom and was amazed by what she saw. Sadly, Solomon’s sin of idolatry led to the kingdom's division after his death. Rehoboam, Solomon's son, foolishly rejected wise counsel, resulting in Israel splitting into two kingdoms. God fulfilled His prophecy but spared Judah after its leaders repented.
