The Bible reports: “Jehovah became furious at Solomon, because his heart had inclined away from Jehovah..., who had appeared to him twice and had warned him about this very thing, that he should not go after other gods.
کتاب مقدّس در این باره می‌گوید :‏ « خشم خداوند بر سلیمان افروخته شد ،‏ چراکه دلش از یَهُوَه خدای اسرائیل منحرف گشته بود ،‏ از او که دو بار بر وی ظاهر شده و در همین خصوص به او فرمان داده بود که از خدایانِ غیر پیروی نکند ؛‏ اما سلیمان آنچه را که خداوند فرمان داده بود ،‏ نگاه نداشت .‏ »
