Where did God promise to lengthen Solomon 's days if he kept His commandment?
Answer Details
God promised to lengthen Solomon's days if he kept His commandments in Gibeon. According to the Bible, after King David passed away, his son Solomon became the king of Israel. One night, God appeared to Solomon in a dream and offered to give him anything he wanted. Solomon asked for wisdom to rule the people well. Impressed by his request, God not only granted him wisdom but also promised to give him wealth, honor, and a long life. The promise was made in Gibeon, where the Tent of Meeting, also known as the Tabernacle, was located at the time. God told Solomon that if he followed His commandments and lived a righteous life, He would lengthen his days.
