   1 Kings 4: Concordance Insights   
      
   all (18x)   
      
   The word denotes comprehensiveness and totality. It gathers people,   
   regions, provisions, officers, and outcomes into a single scope. It   
   shows the reach of Solomon’s reign over Israel and beyond. It also   
   gathers the effects of wisdom, peace, and order as complete rather than   
   partial. The repeated use stresses that the kingdom functions as a   
   unified whole under one rule.   
      
   sons (15x)   
      
   The word denotes lineage, succession, and delegated authority. It   
   identifies officials by family connection, often as sons of named men.   
   It also signals continuity and stability in administration. The frequent   
   mention highlights how the kingdom operates through appointed men who   
   stand within ordered households rather than isolated individuals.   
      
   Solomon(’s) (14x)   
      
   The name denotes personal authority centered in the king. It connects   
   wisdom, organization, peace, and prosperity directly to him. Possessive   
   uses show ownership and responsibility. The repetition anchors every   
   aspect of the chapter to the king God established, emphasizing that   
   order flows from his God-given rule.   
      
   king(s) (10x)   
      
   The word denotes sovereignty and political authority. It refers both to   
   Solomon and to other rulers under or around his domain. It marks   
   hierarchy and dominance. The usage shows Solomon’s supremacy among kings   
   and frames his reign within a broader geopolitical setting while still   
   highlighting his preeminence.   
      
   wisdom (6x)   
      
   The word denotes skillful governance, insight, and God-given   
   understanding. It explains Solomon’s ability to rule, judge, and order   
   the kingdom effectively. It also extends beyond administration to   
   learning, teaching, and reputation. The term ties prosperity and peace   
   directly to God’s gift rather than human cleverness.   
      
   Observation   
      
   The word patterns emphasize total order under a single, wise king. The   
   chapter stresses comprehensive rule, structured leadership, personal   
   responsibility, recognized authority, and divinely granted wisdom.   
   Together, they present a kingdom marked by unity, stability, and   
   abundance flowing from God’s establishment of Solomon’s reign.   
      
   --   
   Have you heard the good news Christ died for our sins (†), and God   
   raised Him from the dead?   
      
   That Christ died for our sins shows we're sinners who deserve the death   
   penalty. That God raised Him from the dead shows Christ's death   
   satisfied God's righteous demands against our sin (Romans 3:25; 1 John   
   2:1-2). This means God can now remain just, while forgiving you of your   
   sins, and saving you from eternal damnation.   
      
   On the basis of Christ's death and resurrection for our sins, call on   
   the name of the Lord to save you: "For 'everyone who calls on the name   
   of the Lord will be saved'" (Romans 10:13, ESV).
