4:29 Shelomoh’s wisdom

Full kingdom

29God gave Shelomoh wisdom and incredible understanding, and the breadth of his interests seemed without limit. 30He was wiser than anyone in the countries east of Yisrael or in Egypt. 31He was wiser than anyone else, including Eytan the Ezrahite and Mahol’s son Heman and Kalkol and Darda, and his reputation spread to all the surrounding countries.[ref] 32He could tell three thousand proverbs and he composed over a thousand songs.[ref] 33He could lecture on plant life from the cedars in Lebanon to the hyssop that grows on walls. He taught about animals, birds, reptiles, and fish. 34People from all around came to listen to Shelomoh’s wisdom—many having been sent by other kings who’d heard about him.
