Solomon’s Request for Wisdom from God (I Kings 3:3-15)
David commissioned Solomon before his death as King. At Gibeon, Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on the altar before God. While asleep in Gibeon, God appeared to him and asked him whatever he wanted. Solomon thanked God for His kind dealings with his father and thereafter requested wisdom to judge the people. God promised to give him wisdom alongside riches, long life and honour so that he would be the wisest and richest king that ever lived if he would keep His commandments.
