'Reputation' in the Bible
Meanwhile, about this time Haggith's son Adonijah began to seek a reputation for himself and decided, "I'm going to be king!" So he prepared chariots, cavalry, and 50 soldiers to serve as a security detail to guard him.
In addition to all of this, the king's servants have come along to congratulate our lord King David. They've been telling David "May your God make Solomon's reputation even more famous than yours, and may he make his throne greater than yours!' The king has himself bowed in worship on his own bed
His reputation was known throughout the surrounding nations. Solomon wrote 3,000 proverbs and 1,005 songs.
When the queen of Sheba heard about Solomon's reputation with the LORD, she came to test him with difficult questions.
