1 Kings 3:1-2

1Solomon made an alliance with Pharaoh king of Egypt and married his daughter. He brought her to the City of David until he finished building his palace and the temple of the Lord, and the wall around Jerusalem.

2The people, however, were still sacrificing at the high places, because a temple had not yet been built for the Name of the Lord.
