Summary
This history has been considered, 7 Kings 10; yet because our Saviour has proposed it as an example in seeking after him, Matthew 12:42, we must not pass it over
without observing, that those who know the worth of true wisdom will grudge no pains or cost to obtain it.
Reflection
Heavenly wisdom is that pearl of great price, for which, if we part with all, we make a good bargain.

This history has been considered, 7 Kings 10; yet because our Saviour has proposed it as an example in seeking after him, Matthew 12:42, we must not pass it over
without observing, that those who know the worth of true wisdom will grudge no pains or cost to obtain it. The queen of Sheba put herself to a great deal of trouble and expense to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and yet, learning from him to serve God, and do her duty, she thought herself well paid for her pains. Heavenly wisdom is that pearl of great price, for which, if we part with all, we make a good bargain.
