What does the Bible say about Rehoboam's reign?

Answered in 1 source

Rehoboam's reign is marked by pride and foolishness, leading to the division of the kingdom of Israel.

Rehoboam ascended to the throne as the son of Solomon, yet he demonstrated a lack of wisdom and unwillingness to heed counsel. His rejection of the advice from older, wiser men in favor of the young and arrogant counsel led to the oppression of the Israelites, resulting in their revolt and the division of the kingdom. This division was a fulfillment of God's prophecy, indicating that God sovereignly orchestrated the events of this tumultuous period.
Scripture References: 1 Kings 12:1-24; 1 Kings 14:21-31
