-—So what ? He also bowed downed and build high places (temples) to the gods his wives worshiped-—
Because a president is sinful, does that mean his office is invalid or void? Was Solomon’s office void? The queen’s? The queen mother’s?
These passages simply point out the historical fact that the office of the queen mother, or “Gebirah,” was more exalted than that of the queen.
-—You do know that Solomon is not in Jesus lineage don’t you? His kingdom was taken away from him and he died in apostasy worshiping devils.——
Was not Solomon the king of the House of David, as is Jesus?
“To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.” -—Rev 3:7
If Jesus is the King of the eternal House of David (He holds the key of David (see also Isaiah 22)), then His mother, Mary, is His Queen Mother, the queen of the eternal House of David, or the Queen of Heaven.
“A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. 2 She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth. 3 Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads. 4 Its tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that it might devour her child the moment he was born. 5 She gave birth to a son, a male child, who “will rule all the nations with an iron scepter.” -—Rev 12
-—You also said this .... which is what I quoted and answered before.
Saul was anointed king in God’s name by Samuel. I don’t think God was offended by this institution.
YES HE WAS OFFENDED THAT THEY REJECTED HIM.-—
Yes. Nevertheless, God granted their request, which fell within His providential plan.
“When you enter the land the LORD your God is giving you and have taken possession of it and settled in it, and you say, “Let us set a king over us like all the nations around us,” 15 be sure to appoint over you a king the LORD your God chooses. He must be from among your fellow Israelites. Do not place a foreigner over you, one who is not an Israelite.”-—Deut 17:14-15
God would not be offended by the office of the queen mother, or “Gebirah,” any more than He was offended by their request for an earthly king, which He granted, despite their earthly motivation.

You admit it grieves HIM yet you keep saying it is ok because someone else did it .
That’s the same kind of reasoning that got Adam kicked out of the garden .
