Then Solomon built a high place to Chemosh the idol of Moab, and to their king the idol of the children of Ammon.

Did not Solomon king of Israel sin thus? Yet there was no king like him among many nations, and he was beloved of God, and God made him king over all Israel; yet strange women turned him aside.
