1 Kings 10:24

And all the earth sought to Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which
God had put in his heart.
] For it was all of God, a peculiar gift of his; by "all the earth" is meant the inhabitants of it, and only them, and those the more principal; who came from the several parts of it, hearing the fame of his wisdom, to know the truth of it, and to improve themselves by it.
