Batman: Holy history, Robin! King Solomon has died, and his son Rehoboam has taken the throne!

Robin: But the Israelites aren’t too pleased with his leadership style, so they’ve split the kingdom into two!

Joker: Oh, gee whiz, this is all so confusing!

Catwoman: Not to worry, Joker. Rehoboam has strengthened his kingdom’s defenses by fortifying his cities and appointing loyal officials to lead them.

Riddler: Interesting! He’s also built up the military forces, by conscripting 180,000 of the best fighting men in the kingdom.

Penguin: And it looks like he really knows how to treat his troops, too! King Rehoboam has given them plenty of provisions and rewards for their service.

Batman: But, Robin, that’s not all. Rehoboam has also built up the kingdom’s religious infrastructure, restoring the Lord’s Temple and appointing Levites and priests to serve in it.

Robin: Wow! It sounds like King Rehoboam is doing all he can to make sure his kingdom is well-protected and prosperous!
