Solomon, the son of David, was known for his wisdom, wealth, and extensive building projects, including the construction of the First Temple in Jerusalem. His reign is characterized by stability and the fulfillment of God's promise to David that his son would build a house for the Lord (<a href="/2_samuel/7-12.htm">2 Samuel 7:12-13</a>).<p><b>Judah and Israel dwelt securely</b><br>The security mentioned here reflects the political stability and peace that marked Solomon's rule. This peace was partly due to Solomon's strategic marriages and alliances, as well as his strong military and administrative organization. The unity of Judah and Israel under Solomon's reign is significant, as it was a time before the eventual division of the kingdom into the northern and southern kingdoms after his death (<a href="/1_kings/11-11.htm">1 Kings 11:11-13</a>).<p><b>from Dan to Beersheba</b><br>This phrase is a geographical expression used to describe the entire land of Israel, from the northernmost city of Dan to the southernmost city of Beersheba. It signifies the extent of Solomon's rule and the comprehensive peace and security experienced throughout the land. This expression is used multiple times in the Old Testament to denote the full territory of Israel (<a href="/judges/20.htm">Judges 20:1</a>, <a href="/2_samuel/3-10.htm">2 Samuel 3:10</a>).<p><b>each man under his own vine and his own fig tree</b><br>This imagery symbolizes peace, prosperity, and personal security. The vine and fig tree were common symbols of agricultural abundance and economic stability in ancient Israel. This phrase is also used in other parts of the Bible to describe a time of peace and divine blessing (<a href="/micah/4-4.htm">Micah 4:4</a>, <a href="/zechariah/3-10.htm">Zechariah 3:10</a>). It reflects the fulfillment of God's promises to Israel regarding the land and their well-being (<a href="/deuteronomy/8-7.htm">Deuteronomy 8:7-9</a>). Additionally, this imagery can be seen as a type of the Messianic kingdom, where ultimate peace and prosperity will be realized under the reign of Jesus Christ.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/s/solomon.htm">Solomon</a></b><br>The son of King David and Bathsheba, Solomon was the third king of Israel.
