body would deny that. He was tre-
mendously. multitudinously married.
He was overwhelmingly and disas-
trously and hopelessly married. Ar
ticles on how TO get married usually
have very little of worth in them
So often such articles are written
by folks that never had any expert
ence in the matters about which
they speak. But IL Solomon had
written a book on how to get mar
ried, ! would advise even the most
hopeless of you to order it the first
thing. Surely he could speak with
authority. having led blushing
bride to the altar some 700 times.
The young man has just come to
the throne. He is not more than 20
years of age. Though so young, he
does not look upon his kingship as
an opportunity to be ministered to.
1t was a solemn responsibility.
1t is task that he must perform
in the fear of the Lord. He knows
that he is not come to be minis
tered unto. but to minister. Ponder
ing these facts. the Lord appears
to him in a dream. And the key of
heaven is put into his hand, as
God says: ASK what l shall give
you"
Reply Of King.
And you remember Solomon's re-
ply? You remember the choice that
he made? Had he been a coarse
and stupid young man he might
have asked for wealth or for pleas
ure or for honor. But he asked for
nf fhasa Ia
He asked that God would be his
for the enlightening of his under
standing. He asked that God would
be the source of his power and the
guide of his uncertain feet.
Now. how did Solomon come TO
marry so many strange women
do not think that we can blame
1t simply on his sensuality. An un-
clean man he was. but IT would not
have been necessary for the very
basest of men to have gone outside
OF his own nation. What was the
man aiming at in marrying numer-
Gus foreign women? Just this: he
was aiming at peace. He hated
war He believed in peace.
Cost of Hate.
1ou can see from this that Solo
mon was indeed a wise man. He
had learned in that distant day what
an expensive thing hate is. He had
learned that war is unspeakably
costly. His father had been a man
of war all his life. He had decided
that he was going to spend his
money on building rather than on
tearing down. that he was going to
invest in the arts OF civilization in
stead of in the. arts of Barbarism.
His aim was altogether noble. He
was ahead Of many statesmen, OF
rather politicians. in oiir day.
But Solomon's mistake was that
he went about 1t in the wrong way.
He took aiforbidden course to bring
about a very desirable end. God
had forbidden intermarriages with
the heather. Solomon knew that.
None knew II. better. But Solomon,
like, many another wise man.
Thought he could make sin pay. He
fancied that in spite of all that God
says to the contrary, that he could
reverse the laws of nature and
gather grapes of thorns and figs
of thistles."
