Jeroboam's Rebellion
32But one tribe will remain for the sake of My servant David and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel. 33For they have forsaken Me to worship Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the Ammonites. They have not walked in My ways, nor done what is right in My eyes, nor kept My statutes and judgments, as Solomon’s father David did. 34Nevertheless, I will not take the whole kingdom out of Solomon’s hand, because I have made him ruler all the days of his life for the sake of David My servant, whom I chose because he kept My commandments and statutes.…

For they have forsaken Me
This phrase indicates a turning away from God, a theme prevalent throughout the Old Testament. Forsaking God often led to dire consequences for Israel, as seen in the cycles of sin and redemption in the Book of Judges. This forsaking is a breach of the covenant relationship established at Sinai, where God declared Himself to be the God of Israel, and they were to be His people.

to worship Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians
Ashtoreth, also known as Astarte or Ishtar, was a prominent deity in the ancient Near East, associated with love and war. The Sidonians were a Phoenician people, and their worship practices often included rituals that were abhorrent to the Israelites, such as temple prostitution. The worship of Ashtoreth represents a direct violation of the first commandment, which prohibits the worship of other gods.

Chemosh the god of the Moabites
Chemosh was the national deity of the Moabites, a people often in conflict with Israel. The worship of Chemosh included practices such as child sacrifice, which were strictly forbidden in Israelite law. The Moabites' worship of Chemosh is mentioned in other biblical texts, such as 2 Kings 3:27, where the king of Moab sacrifices his son to gain favor in battle.

and Milcom the god of the Ammonites
Milcom, also known as Molech, was worshiped by the Ammonites, another neighboring nation of Israel. Like Chemosh, the worship of Milcom involved detestable practices, including child sacrifice. The presence of Milcom worship in Israel is a sign of the deep spiritual decline during Solomon's reign, as he allowed foreign influences to corrupt the worship of Yahweh.

They have not walked in My ways
Walking in God's ways is a metaphor for living according to His commandments and statutes. This phrase underscores the importance of obedience in the covenant relationship. The failure to walk in God's ways often led to judgment and exile, as seen in the later history of Israel and Judah.

nor done what is right in My eyes
This phrase emphasizes the moral and ethical standards set by God. Doing what is right in God's eyes is a recurring theme in the Deuteronomic history, which includes the books of Joshua, Judges, Samuel, and Kings. It contrasts human judgment with divine standards, highlighting the need for alignment with God's will.

nor kept My statutes and judgments
Statutes and judgments refer to the specific laws and decrees given by God to Israel. Keeping these was essential for maintaining the covenant relationship. The failure to keep God's statutes and judgments often resulted in divine discipline, as outlined in Leviticus 26 and Deuteronomy 28.

as Solomon’s father David did
David is often held as the standard for righteous kingship in Israel, despite his own failings. His heart was devoted to God, and he sought forgiveness when he sinned. David's example is frequently cited in the books of Kings and Chronicles as the benchmark for evaluating the kings of Israel and Judah. Solomon's failure to emulate his father's devotion marks a significant turning point in Israel's history.

The Danger of Compromise

The Influence of Relationships
The people we surround ourselves with can significantly impact our spiritual walk, as seen in Solomon's life.

The Importance of Obedience

The Consequences of Idolatry

What Does 1 Kings 11:33 Mean
For they have forsaken Me

The Lord Himself speaks, laying out the root problem: abandonment.

• Covenant unfaithfulness is never a mere slip; it is deliberate turning away (Deuteronomy 31:16; Jeremiah 2:13).

• God’s own heart is grieved when His people break fellowship (James 4:4).

The seriousness here sets the tone for every judgment that follows.


to worship Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians

Solomon welcomed Sidonian worship through marriage alliances (1 Kings 11:5).

• Ashtoreth—often paired with Baal—pulled Israel toward sensual, fertility-centered rites (Judges 2:13; 1 Samuel 7:3).

• Any rival claim to worship violates the first commandment outright (Exodus 20:3).

The text shows literal idol worship, not mere symbolism; tangible altars rose right outside Jerusalem (2 Kings 23:13).


Chemosh the god of the Moabites

Chemosh received human sacrifice (2 Kings 3:26-27).

• God had already warned Israel about Moabite seduction at Peor (Numbers 25:1-3).

• Solomon’s tolerance became national permission; high places for Chemosh were built “on the mountain east of Jerusalem” (1 Kings 11:7).

Idolatry always escalates once the door is cracked.


and Milcom the god of the Ammonites

Milcom (or Molech) demanded child sacrifice in fire (Leviticus 18:21; Jeremiah 49:1).

• The Ammonite connection traces back to Lot’s offspring (Genesis 19:38), a long-running thorn in Israel’s side (Judges 11:12).

• Solomon provided legitimacy to this horrific cult (1 Kings 11:5), modeling compromise for the nation.

The horror underscores how far a once-wise king had drifted.


They have not walked in My ways

Walking pictures steady, daily obedience (Deuteronomy 5:33; Joshua 22:5).

• Solomon’s rule began on this path (1 Kings 3:3) but veered when his heart divided (1 Kings 11:4).

• To “walk” in God’s ways is to let every step align with His revealed will (Psalm 1:1-2).


nor done what is right in My eyes

Right and wrong are not social constructs; they are defined by the Lord (Deuteronomy 12:28).

• “In My eyes” contrasts with the era of the judges, when “everyone did what was right in his own eyes” (Judges 17:6).

• The king’s personal morality shaped national destiny (Proverbs 29:2).


nor kept My statutes and judgments

Statutes—specific commands; judgments—His legal decisions (Deuteronomy 4:5-8).

• God’s covenant with Solomon had been crystal-clear: obedience would secure the throne, disobedience would tear it away (1 Kings 9:4-9).

• Failure to guard God’s word inevitably leads to exile or division (2 Kings 17:7-18).


as Solomon’s father David did

David is the benchmark.

• Though he sinned grievously, he repented and never served other gods (1 Kings 15:5; Psalm 51).

• God called him “a man after My own heart” (Acts 13:22) because his loyalty remained undivided.

• The comparison highlights that wholehearted devotion—not sinless perfection—is what God seeks.


summary

1 Kings 11:33 delivers God’s courtroom verdict: Solomon and Israel exchanged exclusive covenant love for the worship of Ashtoreth, Chemosh, and Milcom. By abandoning God’s ways, ignoring His standards, and refusing to keep His statutes, they broke the pattern of faithful devotion exemplified by David. The verse explains why the kingdom would soon split—idolatry always fractures what God intends to be whole.

Verse 33. - Because that they [The LXX. has the singular throughout, and so have all the translations, except the Chaldee. But the plural is to be retained, the import being that Solomon was not alone in his idolatrous leanings; or it may turn our thoughts to the actual idolaters - his wives - whose guilt he shared. The singular looks as if an alteration had been made to bring the words into harmony with the context, and especially with the concluding words of this verse, "David his father."] have forsaken me, and have worshipped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians [צדנין a Chaldee form. But many MSS. read צדנים], Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom [the LXX. has "their king the abomination," etc., καὶ τῷ βασιλεῖ αὐτῶν. See note on ver. 5], the god of the children of Ammon, and have not walked in my ways, to do that which is right in mine eyes, and to keep my statutes and my Judgments, as did David his father.
