Yes! Solomon, the man known as the wisest man in the Bible. The story is that God came to him in a dream. Solomon was given his choice of gifts. He was devoted to God so he requested a listening heart that would hear and respond to God's will. He went on to request the ability to discern between good and evil. God approved and granted his request. Solomon went on to govern wisely as king of Israel. He built the Temple to the Lord God of Israel. According to biblical records, Solomon was the tenth son of David. His mother was Bathsheba. Read about David and Bathsheba here. Bathsheba and David of the Bible
