Solomon's Wealth

(1 Kings 10.14-29)

Hiram's and Solomon's sailors brought gold, juniper wood, and jewels from the country of Ophir. Solomon used the wood to make steps^[a] for the temple and palace, and harps and other stringed instruments for the musicians. Nothing like these had ever been made in Judah.
