The Wisdom Of King Solomon
全新四年樂活讀經
W3 2012-07-18 (王上4)
經文: 列王記上 4:29-33 神賜給所羅門極大的智慧聰明和廣大的心，如同海沙不可測量。所羅門的智慧超過東方人和埃及人的一切智慧。他的智慧勝過萬人，勝過以斯拉人以探，並瑪曷的兒子希幔、甲各、達大的智慧。他的名聲傳揚在四圍的列國。他作箴言三千句，詩歌一千零五首。他講論草木，自利巴嫩的香柏樹直到牆上長的牛膝草，又講論飛禽走獸、昆蟲水族。
默想: 本段經文中描述所羅門王的智慧，包羅萬象，草木飛禽走獸，可以說是當代最佳百科全書都存放在所羅門王的腦海裡。所羅門王的知識與智慧，除了通曉上帝所創造的大自然以外，還有包括人類特有智慧的詩詞箴言，遠遠超過當代東方與埃及的智者。但是令我們感到無限遺憾的是，所羅門竟然在年老時，忘記了自己在年輕時所寫箴言中有關智慧源頭的話，敬畏耶和華是智慧的開端；認識至聖者便是聰明。(箴9:10)我們不知道，所羅門王在傳道書末了所說的話，這些事都已聽見了，總意就是：敬畏神，謹守他的誡命，這是人所當盡的本分（或作：這是眾人的本分）。因為人所做的事，連一切隱藏的事，無論是善是惡，神都必審問。(傳12:13-14) 是所羅門臨終前對自己這一生沒有盡到為人所當盡的本份，就是敬畏耶和華並謹守他的誡命，所發出的感嘆與後悔之言。求主保守我，這一生能夠敬畏耶和華並遵行他的誡命。
題目: 「神賜給所羅門極大的智慧聰明…」，以致讓列國的王與人民都前來覲見他的智慧。試問，我們若因神所賜的恩賜而為眾人所矚目時，如何引領人歸榮耀給神，而非自己佔據榮耀？
