Verse 28 is found in chapter 3 of 1 Kings. Two women claim the same child before Solomon, and the king proposes dividing the child to reveal which one is the true mother. One woman’s compassionate reaction provides the evidence Solomon seeks. The episode functions as a narrative demonstration of the wisdom received at Gibeon. The king’s ability to discover the truth depends not merely on available information, but on discernment concerning human motives.
