Solomon, King of Israel (10th century BC), was the second son of Uriah's wife, Bathsheba, whom his father, David, had taken as his wife.

He reigned in Israel between 970 and 931 BC and was known and respected for being a wise, just and powerful king.

He raised the Israelite monarchy to the highest level of prosperity, built the temple of Jerusalem, walled this city and cultivated the arts and sciences. The story tells that a trial took place in which two women disputed the motherhood of a baby and King Solomon, to find out which of them was the real one, gave his sword to a soldier and ordered him to cut the child in two, to give half to each one. The real mother then begged the king not to kill the child and give him to the other woman.

With this test Solomon immediately discovers which of the two was lying, showing his wisdom and justice.
