Wives and Children

By | June 13, 2009

Abijah ruled for three years (2 Chr 13:2).  He had 14 wives and 38 children (2 Chr 13:21).  Do the math.  It’s possible, but he must have spent a lot of time visiting the hospital during his reign.  Of course, he likely married before he became king.

Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines (1 Kgs 11:3).  How many children do you suppose he had? 

I think I might be a descendant of Solomon.
