God gave Solomon wisdom and very great insight, and a breadth of understanding as measureless as the sand on the seashore. Solomon’s wisdom was greater than the wisdom of all the people of the East, and greater than all the wisdom of Egypt. He was wiser than anyone else, including Ethan the Ezrahite—wiser than Heman, Kalkol and Darda, the sons of Mahol. And his fame spread to all the surrounding nations. He spoke three thousand proverbs and his songs numbered a thousand and five. He spoke about plant life, from the cedar of Lebanon to the hyssop that grows out of walls. He also spoke about animals and birds, reptiles and fish. From all nations people came to listen to Solomon’s wisdom, sent by all the kings of the world, who had heard of his wisdom.
The king outshone his greatest contemporaries in wisdom, which he expressed, as they did. In proverbs and songs and sayings based on natural and animal life, both of whose titles ascribe them to Solomon, Proverbs.
Why?
Wisdom for Solomon is given by the Lord, so his wisdom is beyond all people in the world. He wrote so many proverbs and songs.
All of these songs and proverbs described the great of the Lord's creation as beautiful and complemented.
Solomon is proud of the history of Israel, but it also is the downfall of Israel after Solomon.

神賜給所羅門極大的智慧、聰明，是曉得從知識中推斷更多的事！博學多才！
東方(幼發拉底河一帶)古文明有許多格言，關係為人處世，甚至生命永恆等，埃及人比較多科學的見解，奧秘。但是這些都不如所羅門王。
從神的創造性中，看到神的創造偉大，最大的香柏樹到啟示微小的牆邊牛膝草都看到神的智慧，領受許多格言。每件事物都有神的哲理在當中。不限於科學、生物學，乃與哲理、生命有關係。超越世上所有人。敬畏神就是智慧的開端！

How?
Be humble, I am nothing without the Lord!
