11:41-43 The brief closing summary of Solomon’s reign and death is similar to that of his father David (2:10-12). These summaries provide a typical formula for the accounts of succeeding kings. • The Book of the Acts of Solomon was likely kept in a prophetic center or in palace and Temple archives. It served as a source of information for the author of Kings but is now lost (cp. 14:19, 29). • Solomon reigned from 971 to 931 BC.
