1 Kings 10 - 2 Kings 5
Day 106 April 16 - 1 Kings 10 and 11
The Queen of Sheba has heard of the wisdom and wonderment of King Saul, but it was not enough for her to merely hear, she wanted to see all of this with her own eyes.

The city of Jerusalem had so much silver within it that it seemed to be of no more value than stones. Solomon was so wealthy from all of his tribute money that was coming in from all of those that were subject to Israel, that silver was deemed to be about as valuable as a rock.
