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

²⁹ And God gave Solomon exceedingly much wisdom and understanding, and largeness 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 Egypt. ³¹ For he was wiser than all men: than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol. And his fame was in all the 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 that is in Lebanon even to the hyssop that springs out of the wall. He spoke also of beasts, and of birds, and of creeping things, and of fishes. ³⁴ And there came of all peoples to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth who had heard of his wisdom.
