Episode overview
The son of David and Bathsheba, Solomon was a 12-year-old prodigy when he ascended to the throne of Israel. When asked by God what he needed to rule, Solomon requested the ability to see into men's hearts. Yet for all his storied wisdom, his magnificent talent for palace building, and his 700 wives, Solomon remained a lonely and introspective man for most of his rule. Who was the mysterious and beautiful queen who finally captured the king's heart? Solomon and Sheba: An Epic Love Story relates their fascinating tale, drawing on interviews with historians, rare paintings and artifacts, and extensive location footage. Witness Solomon's evolution from his juvenile accession of the throne to his position as the wisest man of the ancient world. Join Biography for a detailed portrait of a man of towering intellect-and the woman who ignited his legendary passion.
