1 Kings 5:7-12
Hiram kept Solomon supplied with all the cedar and ping logs he wanted, and Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand cors of wheat as food for his household, in addition to twenty thousand baths of pressed olive oil.
The Lord gave Solomon wisdom, just as he had promised him. There were peaceful relations between Hiram and Solomon, and the two of them made a treaty.
Cor/Kor: A measurement of capacity. A cor of wheat = a donkey-load. A cor of oil = 48 gallons. Goo News bible reads 2,000 tonnes of wheat and 400,000 liters of pure olive oil.
Why?
Because of God gave Solomon wisdom so they made a treaty and great trade between Israel and Hiram.
To keep trade and treaty successful needs God's blessing and wisdom.
How?
God is the key point to make things done. Praise the Lord!
