2 Chronicles 9:31
And Solomon slept with his fathers, and he was buried in the city of David his father: and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead. And Solomon slept with his fathers, and he was buried in the city of David his father: and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead.
The verse records that Solomon died, that he was buried in the city of David, and that his son Rehoboam succeeded him as king. It belongs to the history of Solomon's reign within the book's account of the history of Judah, an account that gives special attention to the temple and its services. It stands at the close of the history running from the rest of David's reign through Solomon's reign, after David's mistakes and humble spirit under reproof, his purpose to build a house of God and gathering of material for it, the call of Solomon to the kingdom and the establishment of his reign, the building of the temple of God and its solemn dedication, and Solomon's plans for the service of the house of God and his enterprise in commerce, with the ninth chapter showing Solomon's wonderful wisdom and riches.
It marks the end of Solomon's reign and the beginning of Rehoboam's reign. Solomon's death marked the end of the united kingdom, which was divided during Rehoboam's reign.
