1 Kings 4:29-34 - Solomon's Wisdom: Literature, Zoology, Biology, Dendrology

29 And God gave Solomon exceedingly great wisdom and intelligence and magnanimity of heart, even as the sand that is on the sea shore. 30 And Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the sons of the east and all the wisdom of the Egyptians. 31 For he was wiser than all men, than Ethan, the Ezrahite, and Heman and Chalcol and Darda, the sons of Mahol; and he was named in all nations round about.

32 And he spoke three thousand proverbs: and his songs were a thousand and five. 33 And he spoke of trees, from the cedar tree that is in Lebanon even unto the hyssop that springs out of the wall. He also spoke of animals and of fowl and of serpents and of fishes. 34 And they came from all peoples to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth, who had heard of his wisdom.
