1 Reyes 3:25

Entonces el rey dijo: Partid al niño vivo en dos, y dad la mitad a una y la otra mitad a la otra.

Tesoro de la Escritura

1 Reyes 3:28
Cuando todo Israel oyó del juicio que el rey había pronunciado, temieron al rey, porque vieron que la sabiduría de Dios estaba en él para administrar justicia.

. The two following instances are in some faint manner to be compared to Solomon's decision, inasmuch as they also work upon the human sympathies. Suetionius, in his Life of the emperor Claudian, tells us, that this emperor discovered a woman to be the real mother of a young man, whom she refused to acknowledge, by commanding her to marry him, the proofs being doubtful on both sides; for, rather than commit incest, she confessed the truth. Diodorus Siculus also informs us, that Ariopharnes, king of Thrace, being appointed to decided between three young men, each of whom professed to be the son of the deceased king of the Cimmerians, and claimed the succession, discovered the real son by ordering each to shoot an arrow into the dead body of the king: two of them did this without hesitation; but the real son of the deceased monarch refused.

Proverbios 25:8
No te apresures a litigar; pues ¿qué harás al final, cuando tu prójimo te avergüence?
