and Esrom begat Aram, and Aram begat Aminadab, and Aminadab begat Naasson, and Naasson begat Salmon,

and Salmon had Booz by Rahab, and Booz had Obed by Ruth,

and Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David the king, and David had Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah.

And Solomon begat Roboam, and Roboam begat Abia,

that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

The queen of the South too, shall rise up in the day of judgement against this generation, and condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold a greater than Solomon is here.
