1 Kings 11:6

1Ki 11:6 And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as [did] David his father.

Bellarmine reckoneth him among reprobates; and he is commonly pictured by the Papists half in heaven and half in hell. But Hilary a holdeth him a saint, and numbereth him with Moses and Peter, who sinned indeed, but repented and received mercy. See Trapp on " Ecc 1:1 " See Trapp on " Ecc 1:2 "
