1 Kings 4:33 - John Wesley's Notes

1 Kings 4:33

31 For he was ^awiser than all men—^bthan Ethan the Ezrahite, ^cand Heman, Chalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol; and his fame was in all the surrounding nations.

32 ^aHe spoke three thousand proverbs, and his ^bsongs were one thousand and five.

33 Also he spoke of trees, from the cedar tree of Lebanon even to the hyssop that springs out of the wall; he spoke also of animals, of birds, of creeping things, and of fish.

34 And men of all nations, from all the kings of the earth who had heard of his wisdom, ^acame to hear the wisdom of Solomon.

1 Kings 4:33

Trees - That is, of all plants, of their nature and qualities: all which discourses are lost, without any impeachment of the perfection of the holy scriptures; which were not written to teach men philosophy or physick, but only to make them wise unto salvation. From the cedar, etc. - That is, from the greatest to the least.
