1 Kings 3:16–28

Faced with an impossible case, Solomon demonstrates the wisdom of God by discerning the true mother of a disputed child. With no witnesses or evidence, he issues a shocking test that exposes the hearts of both women, bringing justice through wisdom. This moment reveals Solomon’s role as a wise and just king, pointing forward to the perfect wisdom and justice found in Christ. As we long for truth and righteousness in a broken world, this passage reminds us that ultimate justice is found in the kingdom of God.
