Hard Questions
This was a most interesting occasion in the life of King Solomon. The Queen of Sheba, hearing of the fame of Solomon, and as it is emphasised, the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the Lord (see 1 Kings 10. 1), she was attracted, and she came.

These verses have been likened to a golden chain of salvation with each golden link precious in itself. A word in context The Apostle Paul begins by speaking of all things working together for good.
