Publisher's Summary

When he is crowned king of Israel as heir to the beloved King David, Solomon prays to God to give him wisdom, fearing that his youth and inexperience make him unready to rule over a mighty nation. God blesses Solomon with wisdom and many riches too, while the now famous king sets about building the imposing temple for his Lord that his father David had never seen completed. Yet soon, Solomon’s love for luxury gets the better of him, and the glorious future that seemed destined for both the king and his people can no longer be assured. 

This delightful retelling of the classic bible tale is told in the spirit of the countless storytellers who have enthralled audiences young and old throughout the centuries. 

This tale is one of the series Bible Stories Shorts and is also available with the collected other stories as part of Tales of Old, Stories from The Old Testament.
