The queen of Sheba comes to Jerusalem to test Solomon with hard questions

스바 여왕이 어려운 문제로 솔로몬을 시험코자 하여 예루살렘에 옴

1 Kings 10:1–5: when the queen of Sheba hears of the fame of Solomon concerning the LORD’s name, she comes to test him with hard questions. She comes to Jerusalem with a very great caravan, with camels that bore spices, very much gold, and precious stones; and when she has come to Solomon, she talks with him about all that was in her heart. Solomon answers all her questions. The text says, “There wasn’t anything hidden from the king which he didn’t tell her.” When the queen of Sheba has seen all the wisdom of Solomon, the house that he had built, the food of his table, the sitting of his servants, the attendance of his officials, their clothing, his cup bearers, and his ascent by which he went up to the LORD’s house, there is no more spirit in her. Where WEB reads “his ascent by which he went up to the LORD’s house” (10:5), the Korean Revised Version reads 여호와의 전에 올라가는 층계, the stairway going up to the LORD’s house.
