I wonder who the wisest person is that you know? I don't mean the person with the highest IQ or the most earned degrees or the most significant role in society, I mean the WISEST person. In our 30-day journey toward Christmas, as we look at Old Testament heroes whose lives pointed forward to Jesus, do you know who the person is whom God blessed with more wisdom than any other person alive at that time, or maybe in all of history? He was the third King of Israel, the son of King David. His name was Solomon, and we find his story in I Kings 1-11 and 1 Chronicles 28- 2 Chronicles 9. The story of Solomon's birth is found in 2 Samuel 12 and sadly comes at the conclusion of King David's darkest and most shameful time, his sinful relationship with Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah. (2 Samuel 11) The son born to David and Bathsheba conceived in that sinful relationship died, but after David's repentance and his marriage to widow Bathsheba, God blessed them with a son they named Solomon.
