What do the parables of the king of Israel teach?
The parables of Solomon are the result of his life experience, which he passes on not only to his heir, but to all people who want to live in peace and harmony with their conscience. The fear of the Lord, which many readers of Solomon's parables take literally, means respect and veneration for the Divine covenant about how all people on earth should live.
The Book of Solomon's Proverbs is still relevant today. With the development of the Internet, you can read the instructions of the ancient king yourself online or download a video to your computer or disk. Many Christian sites make it possible to listen to the wise commandments of Solomon online.
Historically, no confirmation of Solomon's life in reality has been found. All information about the third king of Israel is taken from the Bible. It is believed that King Solomon built the Jerusalem Temple of unprecedented beauty and splendor.
Everything has passed will pass and this is a phrase in Latin
Everyone in life has had moments when they wanted to climb a wall or howl at the moon, or even didn’t want to live at all. At such moments, any person remembers those closest to him, no matter if they are friends or relatives. The main thing is to provide help, not physically, but rather morally.
Personally, at such moments in my life I am drawn to read something wise and instructive. So I scan the Internet and look for sayings of the greats that would be useful for any occasion in life.
By the way! Solomon's rings are on Ali, I looked there recently and this is what I found. But let's get back to the topic.
One of the greatest sages of antiquity was King Solomon. Many legends and rumors haunt his name to this day. But what the great king is famous for is the ring, which, according to legend, he never parted with. An inscription was engraved on it in an ancient language - everything passes and this will pass in Latin. There is also a version that the phrase was slightly different - “This is how earthly glory passes.”
Now there are many assumptions about how exactly the ring got to the king. Some sources claim that it was given by a sage to whom Solomon turned for advice. Others said it was a jeweler. How this actually happened, we will be able to find out if a time machine is invented and someone specially goes to investigate the veracity of this legend. For now we can only guess...
However, it doesn’t matter where the inscription came from, maybe it wasn’t written on the ring at all, we didn’t see it with our own eyes. Most likely, if the ring exists, it is carefully hidden.
There is evidence that the inscription was not in Latin, but in ancient Hebrew. And it was written inside the ring with only three letters, when turned, it was given a new meaning.
The original inscription in Latin reads like this - Omnia transeunt et id qouque - on the outside of the ring, Etiam transeat - on its inside. There is also this option - Omne quod transit, et hoc non factum est .
Not long ago, the end of this famous phrase appeared, which sounds: “Nothing passes.” The most interesting thing is that Solomon saw it at the end of his life on the edge of the ring and where it came from is unknown.
You know, I have the opinion that it doesn’t matter how dear certain things or people are to us. We can never say with certainty that we know everything about them.
