Explanation

Solomon succeeded his father David on the throne. At Gibeon, as he went to offer sacrifice unto God, the Lord appeared to him in a dream asking him to request for whatever he wanted. Solomon requested for wisdom to rule his people. God was pleased with that because he did not ask for wealth or the death of his enemies. The Lord granted his request and promised him wealth and honour. His wisdom was soon put to practice as he judged two prostitutes giving them the right judgment. His wisdom spread far and wide among other nations. 1 Kings 3:1-28
