Correct Answer
B
Explanation
The Lord, God of Israel, had appeared to Solomon twice and had commanded him not to worship foreign gods. Solomon did not obey the Lord, but turned away from him. So the Lord was angry with Solomon and said to him. Because you have deliberately broken your covenant with me and disobeyed my command, I promise that I will take the kingdom away from you and give it to one of your officials. However, for the sake of your father David I will not do this in your life time but during the reign of your son. And I will not take the whole kingdom away from him instead, I will leave him one tribe for the sake of my servant David. 1 Kings 11:9-13
