Solomon's Enemies

25 He was trouble to Israel all through the days of Solomon. This is the damage Hadad did: he was cruel to Israel while he was ruler over Edom. 26 Then Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite of Zeredah, Solomon’s servant, whose mother’s name was Zeruah, a widow, also rebelled against the king. 27 This is how he rebelled: Solomon was building the Millo (supporting terraces) and making good the damaged parts of the town of his father David.
