One of Solomon's wives was the daughter of Abinadab, who was placed in charge of the district of Dor.
One of Solomon's wives, unnamed in the biblical text, was the daughter of Ben-abinadab, one of Solomon's twelve district governors responsible for providing the royal household's provisions on a monthly rotation (1 Kings 4:11). She is mentioned as the wife of Ben-abinadab and is noted as Solomon's daughter in the administrative list, illustrating the practice of marrying daughters to district governors to bind them to the royal household.
