SoftP:
Though Adonija’s intentions wasn’t pure,
but that was a humble request which could have been refused,
more also, he politely approached Solomon’s mother first!
but a King does not takes calmly whatever poses a threat to his leadership!

Besides; Solomon does not also joke With anything that concerns his libido,
just like his Father who killed the husband of his mother(Uriah) just to possess her.

It’s hereditary

Ogun idile. That libido part got me.

baralatie:

As in the dude went overboard in his adventure of treasonable offences

Basically he was executed for his initial rebellion against David. The forgiveness he'd received was cancelled.

Maynman:

Which laws and punishment in ancient times says you should kill someone because of a woman.
Send me where you read yours.

Sigh....he was killed for treason...he attempted to take the throne from a sitting king... i told u this b4....but u just want to cap......so u are free to even say he was killed for shitting or sneezing

Remember the case of Jacob and Reuben, Reuben slept with Jacob's concubine and Jacob cursed him at point of death. It took Moses coming around to bless Reuben.
So Solomon was right, you don't take your father's wife or mistress to lay with her.

The story didn’t mention all that.
Focus on the story, don’t be sympathetic to it.

this is all what the story said.
“ There was a man named adonija, Solomon older brother he went to meet king Solomon mother Bethsheba to make a request that if possible king Solomon should give him the virgin girl given to their father king David when king Solomon was told his brother request he got angry and put him to death...
So here is my question bcoz am somehow confused is king Solomon action right or wrong”

Bethseba was the last Maiden that stayed beside King David B4 His death. Adonijah dragged the throne with Solomon B4 Solomon was chosen by king David. According to the accident beleive, if a son takes His Father's maiden, He also makes claim to all His Father's properties including the throne. Adonijah knew exactly what He was doing

go deeper into acient scriptures and U will find Ur answer. Adonijah was making claim to Solomon's Throne by having one of David's concubines as His Wife. She lay beside King David B4 His Death and Adonijah could spin the narrative that king David told Her he would be king instead of King Solomon. Adonijah also knew that Him claiming the Concubine comes with certain entitlements and would be respected by the people of Israel

I didn't say it was right though. The times of king Solomon was a very evil time and God gave king Solomon peace cos His Father fought so many wars. King Solomon ended up worshiping idls cos of His pursuit of Vanity. But I tell U this, if He didn't kill Adonijah, Adonijah would have killed Him. Solomon's Mother was already married B4 king David killed her Husband and took Her as His wife, Adonijah's Mother was already a Princess B4 she was bethroned to King David as His Wife, do U think she would allow the Throne skip her Bloodline? Hope U also know that when Absalom rebelled against King David, Adonijah had been offered the throne as the rightful heir to the throne. Just so U know, Elijah that was taken up to Heaven by God called fire from Heaven to consume 50 men 3 different times, Was He also a murderer? God's level of Wisdom is not our own

How is the time of solomon a very evil time?

Murder is Murder, because you are worshipping an isrealite deity that promotes it does not make it right.
That’s callousness and primitive by your god.

advanceDNA:


Solomon considered adonija's action as being covetous of the what belongs to the king's office....he not only wanted the girl, he wanted the throne.......its a treasonable offence..
..its Solomon's discretion to either put such a person to death or not...in my opinion...he would be stupíd to leave such a person alive...

.. however we are in mordern times that laws are different....even kings do not have final say over capital punishment....

In does times it could be acceptable but today, you don't kill people for asking for a wife.You don't kill your brother for that.

FalseProphet1:
You see after David killed Uriah and stole his wife Bathsheba, God cursed David's lineage and said that even though he committed the sin in secrete, he would bear the same publicly.

Ammon raped his sister Tamar.

Absolom killed his brother Ammon for raping his sister Tamar.

Absolom had sex with David's concubines on the roof for all Israel to see.

Solomon killed his brother Adonija because of a girl.

Solomon went on to have over 700 wives and 300 concubines of which I'm very sure that girl he killed his brother for was among.

This was happening because David their father couldn't keep his díck one place.

This I have seen.

Are you saying that Solomon is not responsible for his actions? We should uld blame it on David instead?

Don't believe all stories inside Bible.
Some are false, fallacies.
A prophet of God can never do that

According to the accident beleive, if a son takes His Father's maiden, He also makes claim to all His Father's properties including the throne. Adonijah knew exactly what He was doing

But the throne had already been given to Solomon his junior brother, how would he have claimed their fathers throne because he married their fathers youngest wife. Besides king David had more than 8 wives.

baralatie:

Because when the king died.he left behind his wives and his concubines.
There is practically no remarriage for such personal unless you want to create serious problem for eligibility of who owns the throne.
If those wives and concubines remarry.ot means they have right to take the throne.
So the best is to forbid them from remarrying to save the throne

So, what happens to them, rot away?

There was a man named adonija, Solomon older brother he went to meet king Solomon mother Bethsheba to make a request that if possible king Solomon should give him the virgin girl given to their father king David when king Solomon was told his brother request he got angry and put him to death...
So here is my question bcoz am somehow confused is king Solomon action right or wrong

Below is what the Law of Moses ,the Constitutional Law in God's Nation of Israel, in fact says.

1 The Lord said to Moses,
2 “Tell the Israelites: I am the Lord your God.
3 You must not follow the customs of Egypt where you lived, and you must not follow the customs of the Canaanites where I am leading you. You must not live the way they do.
4 You must obey my rules and follow my laws. Be sure to follow my rules because I am the Lord your God.
5 You must obey my rules and my laws, because whoever obeys them will live. I am the Lord.
6 “You must never have sexual relations with[a] your close relatives. I am the Lord.
7 “You must never have sexual relations with your father or mother. She is your mother, so you must not have sexual relations with her.
8 You must not have sexual relations with your father’s wife, even if she is not your mother, because that is like having sexual relations with your father.
9 “You must not have sexual relations with your sister. It doesn’t matter if she is the daughter of your father or your mother. And it doesn’t matter if your sister was born in your house[c] or at some other place.
10 “You must not have sexual relations with your granddaughter. It doesn’t matter whether she is the daughter of your son or the daughter of your daughter—they are all a part of you!
11 “If your father and his wife[d] have a daughter, she is your sister. You must not have sexual relations with her.
12 “You must not have sexual relations with your father’s sister. She is your father’s close relative.
13 You must not have sexual relations with your mother’s sister. She is your mother’s close relative.
14 You must not have sexual relations with the wife of your father’s brother. You must not go near your uncle’s wife for sexual relations. She is your aunt.
15 “You must not have sexual relations with your daughter-in-law. She is your son’s wife, so you must not have sexual relations with her.
16 “You must not have sexual relations with your brother’s wife. That would be like having sexual relations with your brother.[e]
17 “You must not have sexual relations with a mother and her daughter or her granddaughter. It doesn’t matter if this granddaughter is the daughter of this woman’s son or daughter. Her granddaughters are her close relatives. It is wrong to do this.
18 “While your wife is still living, you must not take her sister as another wife. This will make the sisters become enemies. You must not have sexual relations with your wife’s sister. - Leviticus 18 vs 1 - 18

Adonijah blatantly went against the Law.

Helper1000:
must you invent to be fulfilled? Wetin mecci invent or Ronaldo...get out

Ronaldo and Messsi are only known for their football skills. It's an insult to Solomon to compare them to Ronaldo and Messi. The fact that you had to do this shows how low you regard wisdom knowledge and understanding of Solomon

OP, what is the name of the virgin, King David's last wife that Adonija wanted as a wife?

I also think that there are more to it than just being a virgin.
That girl may have special power or knowledge of the kingdom or dynasty and that's what Adonija wanted to explore.

advanceDNA:
■ Solomon considered adonija's action as being covetous of the what belongs to the king's office....he not only wanted the girl, he wanted the throne.......its a treasonable offence..

This is a silly assumption and conclusion.

wirinet:

But the throne had already been given to Solomon his junior brother, how would he have claimed their fathers throne because he married their fathers youngest wife. Besides king David had more than 8 wives.

see ba, in the old Israel culture Kingship was also a popularity thing, reason why Saul hated David and why Absalom almost took David's throne while he was alive. David was a well respected King but He never announced His successor in public, He told only His Priest and His Wife Beersheba. If Adonijah had gotten David's Concubine as a Wife, He would use it as a tool to increase His popularity amongst the Israelites and also to make claim that He was the rightful heir given that He was the oldest son of king David. It is also to be Mentioned that Solomon had a love Hate relationship with many parts of Israel which is why immediately He died they broke off from His Son Rehoboam and left the Bloodline of David to rule Judah..

FalseProphet1:
You see after David killed Uriah and stole his wife Bathsheba, God cursed David's lineage and said that even though he committed the sin in secrete, he would bear the same publicly.
Ammon raped his sister Tamar.Absolom killed his brother Ammon for raping his sister Tamar. Absolom had sex with David's concubines on the roof for all Israel to see.

This was happening because David their father couldn't keep his díck one place. This I have seen.

God cursed the same lineage from which He promised to place a King forever on the throne of Israel? You do know that Jesus Christ is from that lineage, right?
