Solomon sought.
Shishak.This is the first time we meet with the proper name of an Egyptian king in Scripture, Pharaoh being the general appellation for all the sovereigns of that country.
Some are of opinion that Shishak is the same with the celebrated Sesostris of the Greek historians; but it is probable that this king lived long before Solomon's time.
Usher thinks him to be Sesonchis, and places the beginning of his reign, A.M. 3026, B.C. 978.
1 R. 14:25‑26• 25Al quinto año del rey Roboam subió Sisac rey de Egipto contra Jerusalem.
26Y tomó los tesoros de la casa de Jehová, y los tesoros de la casa real, y saqueólo todo: llevóse también todos los escudos de oro que Salomón había hecho.
(1 R. 14:25‑26)
;
2 Cr. 12:2‑9• 2Y en el quinto año del rey Roboam subió Sisac rey de Egipto contra Jerusalem, (por cuanto se habían rebelado contra Jehová,)
3Con mil y doscientos carros, y con sesenta mil hombres de á caballo: mas el pueblo que venía con él de Egipto, no tenía número; á saber, de Libios, Sukienos, y Etiopes.
4Y tomó las ciudades fuertes de Judá, y llegó hasta Jerusalem.
5Entonces vino Semeías profeta á Roboam y á los príncipes de Judá, que estaban reunidos en Jerusalem por causa de Sisac, y díjoles: Así ha dicho Jehová: Vosotros me habéis dejado, y yo también os he dejado en manos de Sisac.
6Y los príncipes de Israel y el rey se humillaron, y dijeron: Justo es Jehová.
7Y como vió Jehová que se habían humillado, fué palabra de Jehová á Semeías, diciendo: Hanse humillado; no los destruiré; antes los salvare en breve, y no se derramará mi ira contra Jerusalem por mano de Sisac.
8Empero serán sus siervos; para que sepan qué es servirme á mí, y servir á los reinos de las naciones.
9Subió pues Sisac rey de Egipto á Jerusalem, y tomó los tesoros de la casa de Jehová, y los tesoros de la casa del rey; todo lo llevó: y tomó los paveses de oro que Salomón había hecho.
(2 Cr. 12:2‑9)
 Solomon seeks to kill Jeroboam (1 Kings 11:40). Such are the feelings produced in his heart by this discipline! Instead of bringing him into God’s presence bowed, humbly submitting to the chastening, the obstacle God had raised up to him only irritates him and provokes him to seek to free himself of it. (The Enemies: 1 Kings 11:14-43 by H.L. Rossier)
