King Solomon
KING SOLOMON King Solomon was a great ruler and builder. Solomon was the son of David. David and Solomon’s lifestyle was very different as well as their accomplishments. Solomon and his father David were both outstanding figures. ... Solomon was born into royal estate, consolidated the realm and gave it forty years of peace and prosperity. ... Solomon’s story lacks the drama and intense human interest that makes that of David. Clearly, Solomon and David were both outstanding but their careers were nothing the same. Solomon was the third king of ancient Israel.
