1 KINGS 10

THE QUEEN OF SHEBA AMAZED BY SOLOMON’S WEALTH

After completing the temple, news of Solomon’s wisdom and wealth travel quickly. The Queen of Sheba travels to Jerusalem to test Solomon’s knowledge with difficult questions. She is left speechless by Solomon’s wisdom and accomplishments. Although she does not know God, she praises Him and acknowledges Him as the source of Solomon’s wisdom!

Solomon’s wealth is growing rapidly. He has amassed great wealth and an abundance of horses, a direct disobedience to the laws of Deuteronomy 17.
