This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
31. βασίλισσα νότου. The queen of Sheba (1Ki 10:1-13; 2Ch 9:1-12). The visit of this queen of Yemen made a deep impression on Oriental imagination, and is found in the Koran (xxvii., &c.) “diluted with nonsense and encumbered with fables.”
μετὰ τῶν ἀνδρῶν. Woman though she was she will rise with the men (ἀνδρῶν not ἀνθρώπων).
ἀκοῦσαι τὴν σοφίαν Σολομῶνος. And also “to prove him with hard questions,” 1Ki 10:1.
πλεῖον. ‘Something more.’
