Judgment of Solomon

Judgment of Solomon

Wisdom means making the right decision by understanding people’s hearts.

One day, two women came to King Solomon with a baby. Each woman said the baby was hers.

Solomon said, “Bring me a sword. Cut the baby in two and give half to each woman.”

One woman agreed. The other cried and said, “No! Give the baby to her. Do not kill the child.”

Then Solomon knew the truth. He gave the baby to the woman who wanted to save his life.

Through this story, Solomon showed that true wisdom sees love, not just words.
