What king had the most sons in the Bible?
Possibly Solomon had many wives, but I don't know how many kids. Since he had 700 wives and 300 concubines, it would stand to reason that he probably had the most children out of all the Kings of Israel. Solomon, however, was deemed wrong by God for multiplying wives unto himself. "Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold." Deuteronomy 17:17.
What did the number of King Solomon's wives indicate?
Solomon's wives indicated all of his intermarriages with all the nations.Answer:Though he made a mistake by doing so, it should be understood that he had honorable intentions. By creating ties with many nations, King Solomon planned to influence their populations and bring them to learn about God. He succeeded partially but died relatively young. You should also be aware that according to our traditions, all of King Solomon's wives converted to Judaism.
Why did solomon have 700 wives?
1 Kings says that the legendary King Solomon had 700 wives and three hundred concubines. Since archaeologists believe that the population of Jerusalem was only around 2,000 people in total during the time attributed to King Solomon, this would mean that every female person in the entire city was part of his harem. The men of the city had to spend their lives celibate, but apparently had no wish to rebel. And given that there would be no children born in Jerusalem other than the children of Solomon, there would have had to be a constant influx of young women to add to his harem.This is an entirely implausible scenario, and was clearly a literary invention to enhance the status and reputation of Solomon (and by association, the status and reputation of Israel) among the Jews of a later generation.Answer:King Solomon had so many wives for at least "two" reasons [and, no doubt, more]:Reason 1- Because was the king. When you are the sovereign ruler of your kingdom... you can do that kind of thing if you want to.Reason 2- As sovereign over all throughout his realm... he could afford it [materially, at least; if not spiritually].
Why did Muhammad married many wives?
well, he was married to one wife in Mecca & was very devoted to her. He married the other wives due to mainly either humanitarian or political reasons. - polygamy is a very ancient practice found in many human societies. - As a matter of fact & as an example, the Bible tells that King Solomon had had seven hundred wives and three hundred concubines & tells about 99 women for David or 37 in other narrations. For sure, we Muslims do love & respect all prophets including Solomon & David peace be upon them but if Muhammad had married for example tenth the number of Solomon's wives then I think the media would have said a lot !
Why did people go to king Solomon's temple?

Why was King Solomon a philander?
I think you mean a philanderer. Simply, because as a King he fell away from God and lusted after his 300 wives and concubines. Even though the culture allowed it, after all he was the King, this was contrary to God's teachings to have only one wife. Solomon began to worship idols also and all of this was abominable unto the Lord. Although, he had been the wisest man, he became wicked and foolish. Thus, we have another example of men called and blessed by God who fall due to their arrogance and foolishness.

Why was King Solomon's harem so large?
It had to house over 800 wives and concubines, so naturally it had to be large. An unfortunate consequence of having multiple wives is having multiple daughters. Sons are wanted as most of them get killed in battle and you have to assure that at least one survives. Daughters however - well you end up with more of them than what you intend to have. So what to do with them all? Well one option (if you are of the aristocracy) is to marry them off to a wealthy man. Guys like King Solomon are in the business of keeping his supporters happy and one way of doing that is to accept their daughters as gifts.
Did Solomon commit adultery?
it is very hard to answer Bible questions for fear of being labeled as someone who has misunderstood or given a personal opinion on something that should be biblically-based. However, Solomon on his lifetime had had 700 wives and 300 concubines, so in modern times and in layman's terms, one would actually think that he did commit adultery.
