SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:27
Entonces el rey respondió, y dijo: Dad a aquélla el hijo vivo, y no lo matéis: ella es su madre.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 27. Then the king answered and said, give her the living child , and in no wise slay it , etc.] That is, to her who desired it might not be slain, but rather be given to her who had no right to it: she [is] the mother thereof ; which might be strongly concluded from her compassion for it, her eagerness and earnestness to have its life spared, and from the indifference of the other, yea, from her cruelty and barbarity in moving to have it divided.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 16-28 - An instance of Solomon's wisdom is given. Notice the difficulty of the case. To find out the true mother, he could not try which the chil loved best, and therefore tried which loved the child best: the mother's sincerity will be tried, when the child is in danger. Le parents show their love to their children, especially by taking care of their souls, and snatching them as brands out of the burning. By thi and other instances of the wisdom with which God endued him, Solomo had great reputation among his people. This was better to him tha weapons of war; for this he was both feared and loved __________________________________________________________________
