SOLOMONS OFFICIALS

Solomon’s officials included a priest, two scribes, a herald, a general, the friend of the king, the officer over the royal estate, and the administrator of corvée labor (1 Kgs. 4:2-6). The list has some continuity with two other royal administration lists under David’s reign (2 Sam. 8:16-18; 20:23-26). These officials governed 12 or 13 administrative districts (1 Kgs. 4:7-20), depending on whether Judah is included. Judah could possibly have been a separate administrative district since the administrative structure was set up in the south when David reigned from Hebron.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
