SOLOMONS SERVANTS

In a general sense, all who were in the employ of Solomon’s household and officials of the kingdom (1 Kgs. 4:1-19; cf. 3:15; 5:6[MT 20]). Among those who returned to Judah following the Exile were a group designated “the sons of Solomon’s servants” (Ezra 2:55-58 = Neh. 7:57-60), probably the descendants of non-Israelites enslaved by Solomon who came to represent a distinct class in Judah and Israel (1 Kgs. 9:20-21). They apparently constituted a class of postexilic temple personnel similar in function to the Nethinim (Ezra 7:24).

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.
