King Solomon and Queen of Sheba
King Solomon was famous for his wisdom. He was called ‘Solomon the wise’. One of his contemporaries was the Queen of Sheba. She heard Solomon’s name many time. She was very eager to test his wit. So, one day she came to Solomon’s court
with a view to testing his wisdom. She took with her two garlands- one of real roses and the other of artificial roses. But both of the garlands looked quite alike. The Queen placed them on the table and said, “Oh wise king, please look at the garlands and identify the garland of real roses.” Initially Solomon found it very difficult to identify the real rose. Just then he saw some bees humming outside the window. King Solomon told his men to open the window. Then the bees came in and sat on the garland of real flowers. The king then pointed to that garland. The Queen of Sheba was greatly charmed at his wisdom. She said, “May God grant you long life. You are really ‘Solomon the Wise”.
