King Solomon was not only an ancestor of Jesus, he was also known for being the King of Israel who built the first Temple in Jerusalem. With his exceptional wisdom, he is credited as the main author of the book of Proverbs. Over this series, we’ll examine Judges, Kings, and even those trying to usurp the throne, in the lineage leading up to Solomon—figures who made foolish choices in their walk with God that may have helped to inspire Solomon’s wisdom literature. As we look at aspects of foolishness and paths of wisdom, may we learn from these characters and discern how we can avoid making the same mistakes in our own lives.
