Question

Reading 1 Kings 5:5, what can we find that compares (shows similarities between) and contrast (show differences between) those given about Solomon in the verse

Answer 1

I am using Jesus to use to show contrast and comparisons

Answer 2

rephrase the question?

Answer 3

ok

Answer 4

can I give an example?

Answer 5

yea!

Answer 6

so the verse was Matthew 1:6 and they say, "Solomon was the son of David"...They then go on to use a verse that compares or contrast (I think). Answer: Mathew 1:1 Jesus was the Son of David

Answer 7

hope that helps a little

Answer 8

lol wait compare and contrast Solomon and david then?

Answer 9

I have no idea...they have been using Jesus in the examples to use with Solomon so I have just been using jesus

Answer 10

oh i guess in comparison jesus and Solomon were great men with a lot of wisdom, and in contrast, Solomon was not pure like god as he was a sinner and his wisdom had become a main factor in his demise?

Answer 11

well I have to use the verse above to back drop off

Answer 12

so if it was to say in a verse they give about Solomon saying, "Solomon helped a widow with finances" I would have to use a verse with Jesus displaying something similar or different I think

Answer 13

which wouldn't make sense because the verse they give isn't showing a difference it is showing a similar event

Answer 14

ohhh well if you'd consider that a blessing use a sample of Jesus' blessings like healing a leper, or a good one for contrast is how Solomon had many different wives while jesus did not?

Answer 15

hmmm....

Answer 16

lol decisions decisions
