Proverbs 17:27-28
Solomon was a very wealthy man, blessed by God, because he had chosen wisdom over riches. (1 Kings 3: 5-13). Both the king of Tyre (in Lebanon) and the queen of Sheba gave Solomon massive infusions of gold, as well as other riches. How much gold did each of them contribute to king Solomon, according to 1 Kings 9:14 and 10:10?
The king of Tyre gave "sixscore" talents of gold and the queen of Sheba gave him 120 talents. A score equals 20, so these are equivalent amounts. In today's western money, that compares to roughly $691,200,000!
Even more incredible is the statement found in 1 Kings 10:14. "Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred threescore and six talents of gold..."
That is the mind-boggling equivalent in today's exchange of an unbelievable...
3.83 BILLION dollars! And that was in just ONE year!
