Question 1 Report

The immediate cause of the division of the kingdom was
Answer Details
The immediate cause of the division of the kingdom referred to in this question is the foolishness of Rehoboam, the son of King Solomon. After Solomon's death, the people of Israel requested that Rehoboam ease the heavy burden of taxes and labor imposed by his father. Rehoboam refused to listen to the people's request and instead threatened to increase their burden. This led to a rebellion led by Jeroboam, which ultimately resulted in the division of the kingdom.
