her husband's death. Their son Solomon bacame king. He
reigned in Israel between 970BC and 931BC and he was respected
and known as a wise, fair and powerful king.

monarchy to the height of its prosperity, built Jerusalem
Temple, a wall around the city and cultivated the Sciences
and the Arts. It is told in history that there was a case
in which the two women were fighting over a baby and King
Solomon, in order to find out which one was the real mother,
gave his sword to a soldier and ordered him to spilt the
baby in two and to give one half to each of the women.

and to give him to the other woman. This way, Solomon
knew immediately which one was lying, and displayed his
great wisdom and fairness.
