		I Kings 10:7 "Howbeit I believed not the words, until I came, and mine eyes had seen [it]: and, behold, the half was not told me: thy wisdom and prosperity exceedeth the fame which I heard." She admits to Solomon that she did not believe it, until she saw it with her own eyes.

	The Wisdom of King Solomon
		The remarkable conceptual breakthrough of “The Wisdom of King Solomon” is the precise description of the process whereby the interaction between the Torah and the sciences contributes to the process of rectification of the world.
		As it is written, “King Solomon possessed the wisdom of G-d, which enabled him to execute justice.” He was able to apply the Torah’s wisdom to the wisdom of nature and the wisdom of material reality.
		King Solomon’s desire or “passion” (1 Kings 9:1) to rectify worldly art and science—his attraction to the culture and aesthetic of the nations—so overtook that it adversely affected his devoted obedience to the law of the Torah.

	Wisdom (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Against the wisdom of God Paul contrasted "the wisdom of this world" (1 Cor 1:20; 3:19), "human wisdom" (1 Cor 2:4), "the wisdom of men" (1 Cor 2:5), "the wisdom of this age" (1 Cor 2:6), and "man's wisdom" (1 Cor 2:13).
		The biblical concept of wisdom, therefore, is quite different from the classical view of wisdom, which sought through philosophy and man's rational thought to determine the mysteries of existence and the universe.
		The first principle of biblical wisdom is that man should humble himself before God in reverence and worship, obedient to His commands.

		This is the foundation of wisdom and folly. Those who keep God’s commandments are wise, while those who do not are foolish. Solomon, lamentably, is representative of both extremes.
		O how foolish, and how vain, and how evil, and devilish, and how quick to do iniquity, and how slow to do good, are the children of men; yea, how quick to hearken unto the words of the evil one, and to set their hearts upon the vain things of the world!
		Behold, they do not desire that the Lord their God, who hath created them, should rule and reign over them; notwithstanding his great goodness and his mercy towards them, they do set at naught his counsels, and they will not that he should be their guide.
