The Hidden Hebrew Meaning of King Solomon’s Name

The name of King Solomon is not just a name. It hides a very deep meaning and message. Solomon in Hebrew is [music] Schlommo. The roots of the name Schlommo is shalom peace or wholeness. That can explain verse in Chronicle 22:9 and 10 when God said his name shall be Solomon and I will give peace. He shall build the house of my name. That's why God chose Solomon that represents peace to build the house of his name. As the verse in Isaiah 56 says, house of prayer for all nation. To build this house, you need someone that have peace with all nation. When you want to build the house of prayer in your community and God willing also in Jerusalem for all nation, you have to be a person of peace. And this is another example why it's so important and beautiful to read the Bible in Hebrew. God bless you.
