Verse 31 is found in chapter 4 of 1 Kings. God grants Solomon extraordinary wisdom, and his fame reaches peoples and kings. The text compares his knowledge with that of other figures and highlights his ability to speak about plants and animals. The king’s wisdom has a universal dimension: people from different places come to hear him. This fame especially prepares for the visit of the Queen of Sheba and confirms that the blessing received at Gibeon produces international recognition.
