		We described it as “an act of mercy in a merciless world.” Operation Solomon, which took place over six years later, on May 24 and 25, 1991, flew 14,310 Ethiopian Jews to Israel in 34 hours and 4 minutes.
		Operation Solomon is a remarkably informative book about a tense and very complicated rescue.

		None would question the appropriateness of the name that was given to the recent airlift of Ethiopian Jewry: "Operation Solomon." The tale of King Solomon's encounter with the Ethiopic Queen of Sheba is well-known to all readers of the Bible.
		Not so self-evident was the name of the earlier 1984 rescue which was entitled "Operation Moses." The biblical connection between Moses and Ethiopia is not a strong one, being limited to a vague reference to Moses' "Ethiopian wife," a mysterious figure about whom we are told very little.
		Between "Operation Moses" and "Operation Solomon," we have been witnessing the dramatic conclusion of a long association between the Jews and Ethiopia.
