3:3 Solomon demonstrated his loyalty to the Lord by following 1  the practices 2  of his father David, except that he offered sacrifices and burned incense on the high places.

3:4 The king went to Gibeon to offer sacrifices, for it had the most prominent of the high places. 3  Solomon would offer up 4  a thousand burnt sacrifices on the altar there.

2 tn Or “policies, rules.”
