Solomon was so wise with the wisdom God had given him - yet, for all his wisdom his son was to lose everything. God decided that one tribe would remain V 32 But for my servant David and the city of Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, he will have one tribe.

that was... oddly a giant plot twist.
