The divided kingdom
While two southern tribes, Judah and Benjamin, remained loyal to the memory of King David, the northern ten tribes, collectively called Israel, revolted from following Solomon's son, Rehoboam.
When Solomon died, between 926 and 922 BCE, the ten northern tribes refused to submit to his son, Rehoboam, and revolted. From this point on, there would be two kingdoms of Hebrews: in the north - Israel, and in the south - Judah -
