Today: [1 Kings Chapter Ten]: Moving from David’s Table to Solmon’s Table. In this chapter we see the Queen of Sheba as a type of the Bride of Christ coming to sit at Solomon’s table. Sheba traveled a great distance to sit at Solomon’s feet as Mary did at Jesus’ feet. Ancient sources maintain that Sheba bore a child to Solomon and that child was purported to have taken custody of the ark of the Covenant for safekeeping from the Babylonians. In David’s day Mephibosheth the crippled son of Saul’s house was carried daily to the king’s table. In Solomon’s day Sheba sat at the king’s table not as a crippled pauper but as a yielded bride. This represents the maturing of the believer from a sinner saved by grace to a mature son and daughter betrothed to the king.
