Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

Character Studies From The Bible

Solomon

New International Version (NIV)

10 When the queen of Sheba heard about the fame of Solomon and his relationship to the Lord, she came to test Solomon with hard questions. 2 Arriving at Jerusalem with a very great caravan—with camels carrying spices, large quantities of gold, and precious stones—she came to Solomon and talked with him about all that she had on her mind. 3 Solomon answered all her questions; nothing was too hard for the king to explain to her. 4 When the queen of Sheba saw all the wisdom of Solomon and the palace he had built, 5 the food on his table, the seating of his officials, the attending servants in their robes, his cupbearers, and the burnt offerings he made at[a] the temple of the Lord, she was overwhelmed.

6 She said to the king, “The report I heard in my own country about your achievements and your wisdom is true. 7 But I did not believe these things until I came and saw with my own eyes. Indeed, not even half was told me; in wisdom and wealth you have far exceeded the report I heard. 8 How happy your people must be! How happy your officials, who continually stand before you and hear your wisdom! 9 Praise be to the Lord your God, who has delighted in you and placed you on the throne of Israel. Because of the Lord’s eternal love for Israel, he has made you king to maintain justice and righteousness.”

10 And she gave the king 120 talents[b] of gold, large quantities of spices, and precious stones. Never again were so many spices brought in as those the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.

11 (Hiram’s ships brought gold from Ophir; and from there they brought great cargoes of almugwood[c] and precious stones. 12 The king used the almugwood to make supports[d] for the temple of the Lord and for the royal palace, and to make harps and lyres for the musicians. So much almugwood has never been imported or seen since that day.)

13 King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all she desired and asked for, besides what he had given her out of his royal bounty. Then she left and returned with her retinue to her own country.

(1 Kings 10)

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

This brief mention of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba has sparked centuries of speculation and Legend. Movies, Paintings, Novels, and, indeed a whole tribe of Ethiopians who consider themselves Jews have emerged from this story. A Christian Sect in Ethiopia claims to be in possession of the actual Ark of the Covenant, and Hailee Sellasse claimed the Title "Lion of Judah" as one of his royal names. This belief eventually spread to Jamaica and became the basis of the Rastafarian sect, who call Ethiopia "Zion", and the rest of the world, "Babylon." The State of Israel has even airlifted hundreds of Black Jews from Ethiopia, and given them the "Right of Return" based upon this ONE Passage of Scripture.

From this passage, we can infer that Solomon's Wisdom, Wealth, and Greatness had become world-wide news, but also his unique relationship with the One True God of the Universe. This is a profound statement, as it flies in the face of all ancient (and even most modern) religions. It was so deep and magnificent that the Queen just HAD to check it out for herself!

May it be, for each one of us, that our own "relationship" with the Almighty will be so unique, profound, and magnificent, that it will spark curiosity and give each of us an opportunity to share it!

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.
