Contemplation (verses 29-34)
Solomon, because he asked for wisdom, received it; and if anyone were to peruse the Proverbs, he would find the book filled with many maxims of wisdom; and the evidences of Solomon’s wisdom may be seen in his treatises, which contain a great amount of wisdom expressed in few words. So wise, moreover, was Solomon, that the queen of Sheba, having heard his name and the name of the Lord, came to try him with difficult questions and spoke to him all things, whatsoever were in her heart; and Solomon answered her all her questions. There was no question omitted by the king that he did not answer her.
+ Saint Origen
