King Solomon’s Bickering Wives (u/d)

 

What would you do if you had 700 jealous wives bicker among themselves and then  complain to you about each other? 

King Solomon,Why Were You Born?

 

Every wonder what was the reason why we humans were created?

There have been millions of words written over time to explain why God created us.  In my opinion, this reason may be the best succinct  explanationIn .

“Someone once said the reason God created us was because He loves to hear a good story.”

Will your personal story of what occurred in 2017 please Him?

If not, I hope and pray that you receive a numinous touch to make your 2018 story be more pleasing to Him, yourself, family, friends, and community..

King Solomon, Which Solution is More Pragmatic to Help Lift Travel Bans From Muslim Countries?

Which of these two religious leaders “solutions” might better help quiet down all the present bickering and griping about world acceptance of Muslim travelers in the world?

King Solomon, Mohammed, Are Women More Sinful than Men?

  

Are women more sinful than men?

Yes, according to the writings of these two ancient men religious leaders.

King Solomon

Is purported to have had 700 wives and 300 concubines. I would assume he knew more than most men about the character of women. He conducted a test and this is what is recorded in the Bible of the results of his observations.

“Indeed, there is no one on earth who is righteous,
no one who does what is right and never sins.”

 “Look,” says the Teacher, “this is what I have discovered:

Adding one thing to another to discover the scheme of things—
while I was still searching
but not finding—
I found one upright man among a thousand,
but not one upright woman among them all.” (Ecclesiastes Chapter 7)

Mohammed

Had thirteen wives and was purported to had have a multitude of slaves and concubines.  I assume he too knew quite a bit about women.

The Quran records he had a revelation and this is what is written what he  observed about Hell.

Volume 7, Book 62, Number 124:

Narrated Usama:

The Prophet said, “I stood at the gate of Paradise and saw that the majority of the people who entered it were the poor, while the wealthy were stopped at the gate (for the accounts). But the companions of the Fire were ordered to be taken to the Fire. Then I stood at the gate of the Fire and saw that the majority of those who entered it were women.”

Who Was the Only Upright Man?

Solomon writings never identify who he decided to be the only upright man. Some may interpret him to be Job from the time of the patriarchs. Although Job was written in a later time after Solomon era, it could be the writer of Job either had knowledge handed down to him as were many religious beliefs beginning with Abraham. 

I interpret it to be another which I will reveal in my second novel on Solomon. In my first novel, As a Lily Among Thorns, I surmised the Queen of Sheba challange Solomon with this question.

“What do men really know about women?”

Are Woman More Sinful than Men?

The balance and true scales are Yahweh’s concern; all the weights in the bag are his affair. (Proverb 16:11)

King Solomon, Psychological Set, Atheism, War

Was King Solomon a psychologist? 

Definition

A  Psychological Set is an experience by making people especially sensitive to specific kinds of information. A perceptual set, also called perceptual expectancy, is a predisposition to a “perception” in a certain way.

Sets can be created by “motivations” and so can result in people interpreting ambiguous situations so that they see what they want to see. 

Example of King Solomon’s Awareness of Psychological Set

In a novel excerpt, I surmised how King Solomon, based on ancient wise sayings, may have explained to the Queen of Sheba two conflicting “ambiguous situations. The novel is a contemporary application to relate God’s timeless wisdom to our modern world. Proverbs and wise sayings teach us to succeed in life, sometimes called “the granddaddy of every self-improvement book ever written.”

Excerpt

“Solomon, I noticed you studied the writings closely before you solved the riddle. Why did you do that?”

“We have a saying. Sometimes you must gaze upon details for a time in order to better comprehend a problem.” I replied.

 “We also have a saying. Gaze not overmuch, and let thy vision be dimmed. It seems we have two contradictory sayings.”

“I do not believe so. My saying means that sometimes we need to study the details of a problem closely in order to find a solution. Your saying states that if you look at a problem too closely for too long, you may become distracted in meaningless details and fail to comprehend what is most important.” I replied.

“I was hoping you would say that Solomon. I believe there is a problem we most discuss candidly to prevent us from becoming distracted from the reason of my visit.”

“A problem, I pray I have I not said or done something to offend you.”

 Atheism

“In the past year I have to read a number of blog comments of atheists  on various blogs. The atheist writers express their views well with clear concise writings, an indication of their intellect. Many seem to have acquired a lot of knowledge about the Bible and often refer in critical terms why they believe certain writings in the Bible to be offensive to them.

Why is it when an atheist “gazes” at the Bible, they see the writings differently than a faith believer? Is it because of “psychological set” or is there another reason? Perhaps the answer or solution made be explained in this novel excerpt.

Excerpt

“Bilqis, we believe that the belly is the deepest part of a human’s character that resides in this chamber. The belly is the repository of all thoughts, motives, words and actions of a person. Both good and evil reside within the belly.”

Three thousand years later, modern scientists believe good or evil resides in the mind rather than the belly.  Modern psychologists have numerous theories of how perceptions of good and evil thoughts enter our minds. Are there good and evil spirits roaming around trying to enter within us seems to be the principal difference in faith believers or atheists and choices to control their actions.

Faith believers” gaze” at Bibles to try to find good advice how to find solutions to guard or control their actions.

Atheists do not believe in evil spirits. Instead they “gaze” in a mirror of their intelligence to control their actions.

Which beliefs have a good or evil scorecard in recent history?  You can decide for yourself by “gazing” at in this brief blog post whether psychological set, religion, or atheism is the major cause of this human folly.

Why is Religion Responsible for So Much War HERE  

Here is another King Solomon explanation I surmised King Solomon gave to the Queen of Sheba about piety versus intellect.

Excerpt

“Bilqis, a fool is a person who relies on his own intellect, is self-opinionated and incorrigible. Before a person can rely on their own intellect, they must first be willingly to learn discipline and conduct from a teacher. Piety and acquiescence conduct is necessary to acquire the wisdom to understand how to escape from bringing unnecessary harm upon ourselves.” The fool is the one who relies on his intellect, but it is a man of wise conduct who escaped harm. (Proverb 28:26)
