1 Kings was most likely written between 560 and 550 BC, during the Babylonian exile of the Jews.
"The books of 1 and 2 Kings were originally one book, the author of which is unknown... and were originally written for the Jews living in exile in Babylon to preserve a detailed history of Isreal and Judah. First Kings includes the history of the united Kingdom under Kigd Solomon as well as that of the first 80 years of the divided kingdom." - Faith In Action Study Bible
