"the Son of man is Lord"
Electricvity A Present from God?
Some foreign (non-Japanese) viewers might wonder how they could select and access reasonable or informative Japanese Web sites, Homepages, and blogs if they have some translation capability of a human or machine.
My suggestion is to use the following real-time site-listing page:
http://a.hatena.ne.jp/branch/simple
The site lists updating status of various selected Japanese sites, including governmental offices, news agencies, other social bodies in addition to blogs and sites set up by influential politicians (Foreign Minister Mr. Katsuya Okada, Health, Labour and Welfare Minister Mr. Akira Nagatsuma, Foreign-Affairs Committee Chairman of Lower House Mr. Muneo Suzuki, Lower House Member Mr. Kenji Eda, Upper House members Mr. Ichita Yamamoto and Mr. Hiroshige Seko of the LDP, ex-lawmaker/minister Mr. Katsuhiko Shirakawa, etc.), critics, academic researchers, journalists, lawyers, professors, notable bloggers, unidentified online writers...
[For your assurance, EEE Reporter is included there for unknown reasons, since {nominal} Christians account for only 1 percent of the Japanese population. It also indicates an effective English level of the Japanese elite.]
Finally, other foreign (non-Japanese) viewers might wonder how they could select and access the Imperial Household Agency, since Japan is the only nation where an adjective "imperial" is a substantial word.

SECTION I: The Word to Light
(To be continued...)
SECTION II: From Mass to Light based on EEE-Annihilation Diagram
When an electron collides with a positron (a plus charged electron), both the particles disappear and light (a gamma ray) is generated.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annihilation
My point of view is that the size of an electron is determined by the wave length of the light on this collision.
And, the diagram below tells why a pair of an electron and a positron can turn to light but a pair of an electron and an electron cannot.
It is so, since a positive charge has a plus half (0 to 180 degrees) of a sine wave and a negative charge has a minus half (180 to 360 degrees) of a sine wave to form one complete (0 to 360 degrees) wave length for complete light newly generated.
If an electron has no negative charge and a positron has no positive charge, the two particles will still be pulled to each other due to gravity.
Each gravitation wave must have one quarter (90 degrees) of a wave length, so that their phases match to form a "half" wave length of the fundamental space energy.
For the question on the size of an electron:
The gamma ray or the light generated after the annihilation has energy equivalent to 511eKV per particle; thus using a well known equation, E = hC/λ = 12.40/λ (angstrom), the wave length λ of the light generated is calculated as 0.0121 angstrom = 1.21/1000,000,000,000 = 1.21E-12 meters.
From the above EEE-Annihilation Diagram, the diameter of an electron must be around this wavelength. So, the conclusion is that the size of an electron (positron) has an order around minus 12th power of 10 with the unit of meter.
One authentic, scientific article supports this conclusion, since it claims that an electron should be regarded as an permanent current with a size of 1E-12 meters.
http://ci.nii.ac.jp/naid/110004854944/en
Finally, effectiveness of the EEE-Annihilation Diagram is here demonstrated.

So, what is a lesson to be learnt?
Prevention of the global warming depends of a decrease in use of crude oil, coal, and natural gas mostly in generating electricity, if it is mainly ascribed to a CO2 concentration level or an amount of energy released from those fuels.
But, electricity is a controlled flow of an unmeasurable number of electrons.
Yet, our civilization does not mind how large an electron is, since mankind finds no practical value and significance in the size of an electron.
So, praising the God who created the universe and the electron, I presented one idea about the size of an electron: 1.21E-12 meters.
(If the diameter of an electron is expanded to the one of a baseball, the ball would be proportionally expanded to have a diameter 150 times larger than the distance between the earth and the moon or almost half of the distance between the earth and the sun.)

Mat 12:5 Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
Mat 12:6 But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.
Mat 12:7 But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
Mat 12:8 For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.

"Then said Jesus, Let her alone"
Communications, Computing, and Chattering at a Corner of the Universe
The God said this morning to me, "Be generous!"
I then saw a young woman wheeling a handcart with literally barrowful big packages on the side-way of a busy national road and then up on a concrete ramp between commercial buildings, since she wore a uniform of a certain carrying company.
As she was so busy trotting along, pushing the business trolley up and away on the paved lane, I was just seeing her passing by the side of some corporate workers smoking outside the building under a blue sky of the early winter around Tokyo.
You might simply think if she was rich, she would not dare to take up such a job, running on the street pushing a handcart for some salary.
Yet, I think it could be a holy duty for any rich young woman to train herself by doing the same job as the female worker of a transportation company does to please the God.
This is my thought in a morning of the month of Christmas.
SECTION I: BROADCASTING INDUSTRY
U.S. cable TV company Comcast has acquired NBC/Universal.

Mr. Michael Moore yesterday on a Japan's NHK TV program said that he has been attacked by the mainstream media, though he simply loves good and old days around Detroit or so.
Indeed there are still 100 million Americans enjoying their life sharing the paradigm on the world with the three major networks.
But, apparently, 100 million Americans seem to become alienated individuals in the society constructed and aimed to provide a very comfortable environment to the rich and the winners.
Their gap seems to be further widened in an accelerated manner.
So, the three major networks must be oriented to a mission to unite the people. But, if motivated economically and financially alone, they will probably fail.
On the other hand, or from a political point of view, American Judaists highly involved in the broadcasting/film industries might not take the situation seriously, since they are not responsible for a plight poor American Christians face while watching TV.
SECTION II: NATURE NOT BY CHANCE
If there is no God, the nature must be more at random.
People would not even see a God in the nature without mentioning any laws of physics and mathematics.
In the Godless universe, a chance that mankind can utilize the nature by discovering various laws and orders is very nil, since a human body itself might not be built so well.
----------
In physics, fundamental interactions (sometimes called fundamental forces) are the ways that the simplest particles in the universe interact with one other. An interaction is fundamental when it cannot be described in terms of other interactions.
The four known fundamental interactions are electromagnetism, strong interaction, weak interaction (also known as "strong" and "weak nuclear force") and gravitation. With the possible exception of gravity, these interactions are mediated by the exchange of gauge bosons between particles.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_interaction
----------
However, as the Graviton (a source of gravity) and the Higgs boson (a source of mass) are yet to be discovered, I think the current paradigm in Physics on the universe is wrong.
The following is my paradigm (EEE-Material Paradigm):
1. Universe
A. Space (the primary state of energy)
B. Time (the primary state of energy)
2. Interactive Energy (the secondary state of energy)
A. Gravity
B. Light
C. Others (weak and strong elementary interactive force)
D. Dark Energy (?)
3. Matter (the 3rd state of energy)
Any entity to exist in the 3D space with a time axis needs mass to fix it as matter in the universe.
.... ...... .... ...Gravity.....Electromangetism....Strong.....Weak
NEUTRINO... ..1.... ... ... .0... ...... ........ .... .. ...0.. ........1
ELECTRON... ..1..... .. ... .1... ....... ....... .... ... ..0... .......0
QUARKS... ... .. .1.... .. .... .1... ...... .... ...... . ... ...1.... ......1
(Note: A core of an atom is made of some neutron(s) and proton(s) which consist of quarks.)
From the above table, you can easily see that the dark matter must be:
.... .... ... .... .. ...Gravity.....Electromangetism....S.....W
DARK MATTER....1..........0... .. ...... ....... .... ...0.......0
Yet, there might be one without mass but with a size, thus regarded as a kind of matter or the 4th or last state of energy.
... ... ... .....Gravity.....Electromangetism....S....W...Size
DARK SIZE....0..........0.... ....... ...... ..... ...0... ..0.... .1
Trillions of trillions years later, the whole universe might turn to only dark sizes after consuming all the energy and matter.
Now, be aware of the God here and there, on a page of the Bible, on a stone, on a leaf, or on a computer display!

It was an IBM general purpose computer, called a mainframe, that I first used a keyboard attached to a CRT monitor display functioning as terminal equipment of a computer.
Then, I mainly used a keyboard/display terminal connected to a middle-sized computer called mini-computer in a certain software development plant.
Then, I mostly used a keyboard of a personal computer set up as a terminal of a mini-computer network system or a commercial PC communications system using a dial-up modem.
Subsequently, I have been using a PC connected to the Internet via servers of providers.
But, the more I use a keyboard, the less I write handwritten reports, letters, and various types of memos and documents.
In future, through a more convenient method a networked mobile-device user will be able to put in character codes into the screen of the device.
Yet, I hope that such a device will be equipped with a tablet screen on which a user can write characters and letters, even of a very small size, directly by the hand using a special pencil without pushing keys.
Indeed, there was an era when only selected people were allowed to manipulate a computer.
Indeed, Bill, it was in 1969 that Apollo 11 reached the moon without aids of a PC and a cellular phone as well as Windows Operating System...
Joh 12:3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
Joh 12:4 Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him,
Joh 12:5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?
Joh 12:6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.
Joh 12:7 Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this.

"Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and"
(Yokohama over Tokyo spotted, since Captain Tokyo aims 50 Km far)
ELECTRICITY FOREVER?
Of course, I once learnt some about basics and applications of electronics in school and on the job while learning computer science and production engineering without abandoning my quest on industrial pollutions and environmental hazards, decades ago...though Christian priests in churches simply thought I was more foolish than they, self-deceived Bible readers and unforgivable players before a holy cross, since I came to their churches like a foolish soul.
There are some people in this world who are worse than those who insult poor people in person or in public only because poor people have poor goods.
Anyway, the Vatican will not forget that a big earthquake hit a city near Rome recently without a holy reason conceived by them (yet there seem to be some foolish priests who do not understand that the Gospels were originally compiled by seniors of the Vatican founders)...
SECTION I: Numbers, Data, and Information
Let's check the state of the U.S. auto market in November:
---------

GM..............150,305........-1.5
Toyota........133,700........+2.6
Ford............118,215........-0.1
Honda..........74,003........-2.9
Chrysler.......63,569........-25.5
Nissan.........56,288........+20.8

Though the yearly sales of cars in America are expected to be over 10 million in 2009, China has now the largest car market in the world.
In the past five years, car production in China has more than doubled while it has decreased by 50% in America.
In 2008, Japan was No.1 in terms of the number of cars manufactured; China No.2; and America No.3.
Yet, in 2009, China might become No.1.
But, remember a car has been called Devil's wheels by some even in America.
SECTION II: Electrons
Every car today is equipped with various types of electronics.
Without electricity, no economics theories today can maintain their proud grounds.
So, I recommend students and professors to study hard electronics, though electricity is nothing but a kind of flow of, usually, more than trillions of electrons over atoms and molecules.
Now, this most basic entity called electron has still many mysteries.
Mankind does not know yet its size, including as to whether the concept of a size is effective for an electron.
James Maxwell (1831-1879), Thomas Edison (1847-1931), and Albert Einstein (1879-1955) all could not measure it. Even today no scientists and engineers know it.
(For an image of an electron in an atom, http://www.geocities.jp/hiroyuki0620785/k0dennsikotai/1elctron.htm )
However, as the size of a space an electron needs to turn to a black hall is 1E-57 (1/1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) meters, it might be close to the size of an electron, since it can be calculated from a mass of an electron.
Yet, according to a superstring theory, 1E-35 (1/100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) meters looks reasonable as an electron is an elemental particle.
However, some people are really arguing this issue.
(http://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=141401 )
In summary, in the minimal stage of material, the concept of a size is different from what we think of, since it might be no more three-dimensional.
What I want to stress is that an electron has both the energy of mass and the electromagnetism.

"what buildings are here!"
(Japan, heading for or from Tokyo)
Number, Number, Holy Numbers if Restricted
SECTION I: AFGHANISTAN
President Mr. Barack Obama said in his address on the Afghanistan strategy today, "Our new approach in Afghanistan is likely to cost us roughly $30 billion for the military this year."
The land area of Afghanistan is 652,225 km².
The land area of California is 403,932 km².
The land area of Japan is 377,914 km².
The population of Afghanistan is 28,150,000.
The population of California is 35,484,453.
The population of Japan is 127,288,419.
The land of Afghanistan is a little smaller than Japan and California combined.
The population of Afghanistan is 100 million smaller than Japan's or 7 million less than California's.
Yet, you can build 1,000 new big buildings in Afghanistan with $30 billion, if one big modern building needs $30 million for construction.
Then, we can see another Dubai with 1,000 modern buildings in Kabul.
No young Muslims join the Taliban movement or AlQaeda if they can find jobs in Kabul where more buildings than in Dubai are going to be built with massive workforces.
SECTION II: GRAVITY & LIGHT
One of the greatest mysteries in the universe is that light has a finite speed: 2.99792458 X 100,000 kilo-meters/sec.
An energy level light has depends on its frequency of its magnetic field and electric field.
Logically, an infinite volume of mass can be assumed; an infinite number of a frequency of light can be assumed.
But, as a matter of fact, no infinite speed of light is allowed, since it is about 300,000 Km per second.
In addition, an infinite length of time can be assumed logically.
(Only a material with a mass of "0" can move at the light speed. Only light is, unconditionally, such a material so far as mankind knows.)
*** *** *** ***
Logically, almost an infinite scale of money can be generated through high-speed computer-based transactions.
Yet, everything in the nature on the earth is almost finite.
Yet, everything about a man is almost finite.
The God sometimes shows His power by setting restrictions on anything than can be logically increased to the infinite scale.
Yet, as I once wrote, the infinite for man is another form of "0" in a sphere near Heaven: the unreachable bottom line.
Mar 13:1 And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here!
Mar 13:2 And Jesus answering said unto him, what buildings are here! there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

"the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy"
(Around Tokyo, a little old pictures)
SECTION I: HISTORY OF ENERGY
Fundamentals of economy are of course energy and technology, since capital, labor forces, consumers, and regulators cannot easily discover, develop, and commercialize energy and technology without expertise in this field.
----------
History of Energy in the United States: 1635-2000
...
The most striking of these entrances, however, is that of petroleum and natural gas. The curves depicting their consumption remain shallow for several decades following the success of Edwin Drake's drilling rig in 1859, but begin to rise more steeply in the 1920s. Then, interrupted only by the Depression, the curves climb at increasingly alpine angles until 1973. Annual consumption of petroleum and natural gas exceeded that of coal in 1947 and then quadrupled in a single generation. Neither before nor since has any source of energy become so dominant so quickly.
Figure 1. Energy Consumption by Source, 1635-2000
(Quadrillion Btu)
(Click to magnify.)
http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/aer/eh/frame.html
----------
If you observe the earth from the outer space as an extraterrestrial being, you would surely focus on the use of energy by mankind to see the state of welfare of mankind but not on the use of money.
Indeed, according to the energy conservation law and the law of increase in entropy, you, an extraterrestrial being, would estimate some rise of ambient temperature on the earth.
But, if you, an extraterrestrial being, are a historian of the space, you would surely understand that mankind entered the era of petroleum after the American Civil War that was fought in early 1860's.
As in Japan, economy also drastically changed when the last samurai regime fell in late 1860's, we can easily understand implication in the observation by the extraterrestrial being.
We cannot solve fundamental problems of economy today as long as we are still in the era of petroleum.
We cannot solve them forever; but we can leave them and enter a new era of new energy sources.
Japan and the U.S. should cooperate in this enterprise to pave a miracle way for glorious prosperity of mankind in the 21st and the 22nd centuries...
SECTION II: GRAVITY
Mr. Toshihide Maskawa (Masukawa), a Japanese winner of 2008 Nobel Prize in Physics, for the first time traveled overseas when he visited Stockholm, Sweden, to attend the Nobel award ceremony, though he graduated from Nagoya University, Japan, in 1962.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toshihide_Maskawa
His young friend, one of co-winners of 2008 Nobel Prize in Physics, Mr. Makoto Kobayshi has been mainly in charge of attending academic meetings held outside Japan for decades or until 2008.
But, very recently Mr. Masukawa was invited to Korea and China, and made some speech to students there.
He encouraged South Korean and Chinese students, saying that they would soon see Nobel Prize winners from their countries, because it is almost 30 years since the two countries, so close to Japan, started to evolve into modern society.
The very bigoted genius Mr. Masukawa seems to be still very much interested in gravity, since its "effective" work range is too small in comparison with, say, electromagnetism, though gravity reaches to the infinite distance no matter how small it is.
As I once wrote the energy of electromagnetism acts orthogonally against gravity.
Accordingly, the energy of electromagnetism cannot be converted to gravity.
No matter how much you receive the electromagnetic energy from the sun or your cell phone, your weight does not increase.
But, in what coordination or in what manner electromagnetism and gravity cross each other is a big question.
So, I thought that light, the original form of electromagnetism, slides on the surface, while gravity becomes hollow from the surface of the energy space which must have four or more dimensions.
However, when this material universe was first generated the two types of energy, light and gravity, must be one. But, a negligible moment later, they were forever separated at a right angle.
(The Einstein's equation, E = mc^2, suggests this background, since m is mass and c is the light speed. If m is lost, energy is released in the form of light with reasonable energy. Maybe it can be called a phenomenon at a crossing point of the two axes of mass and light.)
Just like this, there are two or more elements in the space of a human mind that have no compatibility to one another.
The energy induced by money and that by God cannot be interchangeable.
*** *** *** ***
In contrast, economics must deal with many interchangeable elements.
Maybe, the total amount of real and virtual money in a nation must be compatible with the total amount of assets and capacity of producing assets...
Luk 12:1 In the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

"a greater than Solomon is here"
(Away from Tokyo...20 miles to 100 miles)
War, Religion, Economy, and Miracles
The last Sunday (11/29) morning and night witnessed miracles around me.
I heard the terrible news that a big rain fell and big floods occurred around Mecca.
http://english.aljazeera.net/news/middleeast/2009/11/2009112974923490434.html
I happened to view "The Lost Tomb of Jesus" on the Discovery Channel over a cable TV service.
http://dsc.discovery.com/convergence/tomb/explore/explore.html
It might be related to my recent writing about Dubai, praising Allah, and my recent celebrating the coming season of Xmas in this blog.
Of course, a big miracle is that the global economy has been sustained over this year despite that scale of the debacle on Wall Street, though Japanese banks are estimated to suffer one billion-dollar defaults in Dubai.
Yet, people in the world are expecting some miracle in the process of the Obama Administration's operation on Afghanistan, since it was in Afghanistan that Mr. Osama bin Laden and his terror fighters started to launch attacks on New York City and Washington D.C. eight years ago.
SECTION I: ECONOMY AND RELIGION
I am not a critic who receives big money from a TV station by contributing to their sinful programs.
Neither am I a teacher in economics or social science who loves higher status society offers in exchange for contribution to upkeep of its regime without any desire for holy betterment.
----------
THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF ISLAMIC ECONOMY
...
According to Holton (1992, 54-69) the basic principles of economics of liberalism as outlined here, represents an amalgam of ideas derived and adopted from a range of sources. These include the 18th century economist Adam Smith, the neo- classical school of economics and more recent post-war economists such as Milton Friedman. The basic principles of this tradition include the following:
- Private Property Rights,
- Individual Sovereignty,
- Self-interest,
- Rationality,
- Self- Regulating Market.
...
From Islamic view, as in other traditional civilizations, economics was never considered as a separate discipline or distinct domain of activity. Consequently, there is no even a word for economics in classical Arabic. The term of Iqtisad (economic) being a fair recent translation of the modern term "economics" in Arabic and having a very different meaning in classical Arabic. Where it means primarily moderation and keeping to the golden mean as witnessed by the famous book Ihya Ulum-id-Din, Gazzali. (1971,265).
According to Sadr (1994,51-55), the Islamic economy is composed of three basic components, according to which its theoretical content is defined. Thus it is distinguished from other economic theories in terms of the broad lines of these components, which are:
- The principle of multi-faceted ownership;
- The principle of economic freedom within a defined limit;
- The principle of social justice.
The principle of multi-faceted ownership
Islam differs essentially from capitalism and socialism in the nature of the principle of ownership, which it acknowledges.
Capitalist society believes in the private individual form of ownership, i.e. private ownership. It allows individuals private ownership of different kinds of wealth in the country according to their activities and circumstances. It only recognizes public ownership when required by social necessity and when experience demonstrated the need for nationalization of this or that utility.
Socialism society is completely contrary to that. So common ownership is the general principal, which it is applied to every kind of wealth.
However, the basic characteristic of both societies are not applicable to Islamic society because Islamic society does not agree with capitalism in the doctrine that private ownership is the principle, or with socialism in its view that common ownership is a general principle. Rather it acknowledges different forms of ownership at the same time. Thus it lays down the principle of multi-faceted ownership. That means from Islamic viewpoint ownership is accepted in a variety of forms-instead of the principle of only one kind of ownership, such as, private ownership, public ownership and state ownership.
http://www.accountancy.com.pk/articles.asp?id=100
----------
Ownership is meaningless for believers, since they admit that all the gold and silver on the earth belong to the God.
Yet, money could remain as an instrument for proving a right to utilize goods and services.
In this context, the last war for mankind should erupt between those who love money and those who hate money.
After the war, each government might simply start to print service tickets, goods coupons, and food stamps while forbidding use of the terms "money" and "interest."
SECTION II: AFTER GREAT WAR
I do really think that the war between troops from Rome led by Augustus and forces led by Antoninus and Cleopatra had a grave influence on psychology on Israelites of the era in terms of security and economy. And then, 30 years or so later Jesus Christ was born.
It was 1970's that history reached 30 years after WWII. If another Jesus Christ had been born in 1970's, he must have already started his another mission, since it is 2009 this year:
----------
How did World War 2 affect the US economy?
A:...
- The U.S. was in large part lifted out of the great depression by selling strategic goods and materials like tools, machinery, petroleum, metals, and grain to both sides since we were neutral at first. Once we were sucked in by the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the economy shifted into overdrive and measures had to be taken to keep inflation from soaring out of control. After the war was over, the seeds of our modern "Consumer based" economy had been sown and grew like wildfire. Technology had taken great leaps forward. Before the war women rarely worked outside the home and only in limited professions. Afterwards the women who had worked to support the war and replace men in the Services liked the money and independence their own jobs gave them and they stayed in the workforce. Finally, we shifted in a massive way from mostly farming to mostly manufacturing jobs and services. Europe was devastated by the war but the U.S. emerged more militarily and economically powerful than ever.
- Economists of the Keynesian school propagated this idea that World War 2 was good for the US economy. In particular, a government economist who did central planning and price fixing during the war named Paul Samuelson wrote economics textbooks that became widely used in schools. Most modern economists these days are not Keynesian. Destruction is never productive. War does not boost an economy. The benefits are short-lived and shallow. Many economists believed that FDR prolonged the depression for many years with his "New Deal" policies and therefore the depression lasted into World War 2. The war did not end the depression. The end of the war ended the depression.
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_did_World_War_2_affect_the_US_economy
----------
WWII changed American views on the world.
Yet, the Korean War and the Vietnam War helped Japan launch its economy eventually into the orbit of the world No.2 scale.
And, the end of the Cold War freed some American people so that they could fully get involved in the commercial stage of competition as executed on Wall Street.
*** *** *** ***
People happy in war, religion, or economy still, I have to conclude, do not need the God.
Rain in Mecca, the Jesus' tomb discovered even if other Jesus', and Japanese miracle economy do not change this holy teaching of Jesus Christ, either.
Luk 11:30 For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation.
Luk 11:31 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and condemn them: for she came from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
