SCRIPTURE

"And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of Jehovah, she came to prove him with hard questions." — 1 Kings 10:1 (ASV)

And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the LORD, she came to prove him with hard questions.

Her visit, you see, had a religious aspect. She heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the Lord. He had wisdom of various kinds, but it was his knowledge of God, and of God's ways, that seemed chiefly to attract this ruler from a far-distant land.
