Why did King Solomon who was made the wisest among all men by God himself turn away from the God of the Hebrews?
Amorseko
God told Solomon on his inauguration as King of Israel: "And if thou wilt walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as thy father David did walk, then I will lengthen thy days." 1 Kings 3:14.
In Deuteronomy 17:17, God had instructed Israel regarding their King, among other responsibilities that he should not do, that "neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away." Solomon did not observe this commandment and the results were his defection from God: "And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart. For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father." 1 Kings 11:3,4.
So, he became very prideful and drifted away to the religions of his many wives. It is evident that he had a weakness for women and just did what they did to please them.

How did Moses and Abraham shape the history of the Hebrew people?
Answer 1Abraham shaped the Hebrew history by being told by God himself, or believed that He did tell him, to leave his own home, and settle into Canaan where his descendants-the Hebrews-- finally settled also, but later, some of the Hebrews moved to Egypt, (they moved to other parts of the world later). However, with the growth of the Hebrews, the pharaoh of Egypt, was worried the Hebrews soon might take over, and to stop that from happening, he made the Hebrews slaves. A man named Moses appeared among the Hebrews in Egypt. God told Moses to lead the Hebrews out of Egypt. Moses then went to the pharaoh and demanded that the Hebrews should be free. The pharaoh refused. Soon afterward a series of plagues (disasters) struck Egypt and the pharaoh then agreed to let the Hebrews free.Christian answer:They both spread the word about God and Jesus.Jewish answer:Abraham founded Judaism.Moses brought the Israelites out of Egypt and received the Torah from God.
