This study is being led by Dr. Walter Kaiser and is based on 1 Kings 1-11. At this time, King David appears to have little zest for life and matters of state were beginning to slip. Events were about to preempt any wish or instruction David might give about who was to be the future king. David's son Adonijah puts himself forward as the new leader, but David declares Solomon to be king. Adonijah's coronation is halted with the news of Solomon's installation as king in Israel and David's death. Let's examine together the life and character of Solomon, the king with a listening heart.
