Jeroboam fled to Egypt after he was threatened by King Solomon, who sought to kill him due to Jeroboam's rising influence and the prophecy that he would become king over Israel. In Egypt, he sought refuge until Solomon's death, after which he returned to Israel and became the first king of the northern kingdom of Israel.
Jeroboam
Well, in a sense, yes....Jeroboam was the son of Nebat, a servant of Solomon's, and an Ephraimite from Zeredah(1 Kings 11:26).Solomon was from the tribe of Judahso the 'relationship' would have been VERY distant. (If you go far enough back, ALL of us on earth, even today, could be considered 'related'...through Adam.)Solomon would have been related to Jeroboam through the twelve sons of Jacob. (Solomon through Judah; Jeroboam through Judah's nephew, Ephraim).Rehoboam (Jeroboam's rival)WAS, however, closely related, being Solomon's son.(2 Chronicles 13:6-7)
JEROBOAM
Solomon, Rehoboam, and Jeroboam were all kings in ancient Israel. Solomon was known for his wisdom and wealth, Rehoboam was Solomon's son who ruled after him and led to the split of the kingdom, and Jeroboam was the first king of the northern kingdom of Israel after the split. They were all key figures in the history of Israel.
Ahijah prophesied to Jeroboam that God would tear the kingdom of Israel away from Solomon's descendants and give ten tribes to Jeroboam to rule. This prophecy came true when Solomon's son Rehoboam lost control of the northern tribes, leading to the division of Israel into two kingdoms.
king Solomon's worst enemy was called Jeroboam.
Solomon, Rehoboam, and Jeroboam are key figures in the history of ancient Israel. Solomon was the son of David and the third king of Israel, known for his wisdom and the construction of the First Temple in Jerusalem. After Solomon's reign, his son Rehoboam ascended to the throne but faced rebellion due to heavy taxation and harsh policies, leading to the division of the kingdom. Jeroboam, a former servant of Solomon, became the first king of the northern kingdom of Israel, establishing a rival kingdom to Rehoboam's southern kingdom of Judah.
Rehav'am (Jeroboam) led the people in a protest against the taxation.
Nowhere does it say that Solomon was disliked.(The tax-load of which the people later complained, became an issue only after his death. During King Solomon's lifetime, the tax was considered an acceptable necessity.)Jeroboam spoke a related complaint during Solomon's reign, but it doesn't say that anyone sided with him at that time.
No.
