b'In our last episode, Solomon\\u2019s brother Adonijah tried to take the throne while David was on his death bed. His plan failed, and Solomon successfully ascended to the throne. During the attempted coup, Adonijah recruited Abiathar the priest and Joab, David\\u2019s former commander. Since then, Adonijah has been executed, Abiathar has been banished, and today. Joab will be executed. Later, the Lord appears to King Solomon in a dream, and instead of asking for wealth or long life, he asks the Lord for wisdom to lead God\\u2019s people. This pleases the Lord, who promises blessing upon Solomon\\u2019s reign, including both wisdom and wealth.'
