What was king Solomons legacy?

Answer 1

A:According to The Bible, Solomon's legacy was the breakup of the United Monarchy into two separate, warring monarchies. The Bible tells us that Solomon's unwise spending and swingeing taxes, maintained by his son, were the cause of the breakup.

Another Answer:

Scripture says that Solomon's Kingdom was the greatest extend of the blessings to Israel:

1 Kings 1:37New International Version (NIV)

37 As the LORD was with my lord the king, so may he be with Solomon to make his throne even greater than the throne of my lord King David!"

The Kingdom expanded during Solomon's 40 year reign. It was not until approximately 30 years after his death, that his two sons quarreled over the heavy tax burden one was imposing upon the people and divided against God's will.
