Most studies of Solomon concentrate on his wisdom rather than his wealth. In this article Professor Millard demonstrates that the account of the great wealth attributed to him is quite credible.

A helpful study of how the worship of Jesus in the Gospels demonstrates how the early church understood his nature.

The article concludes (in part):
M. Max B. Turner, "Spirit Endowment in Luke-Acts: Some Linguistic Considerations," Vox Evangelica 12 (1981): 45-63.Ideas are expressed in various parts of the NT which do indeed bear a distinct affinity to the high priest concept of Hebrews. Some statements could imply that the author had the beginnings of such a concept, or are consonant with the possibility that he held such a concept. Some statements could even have sparked off, or been the spring-board for, the development of the high priest concept of Hebrews. But no reference which we have examined compels us to attribute to the writer a priestly concept of Jesus. Certainly we are unable to follow those who think that a sacrificial interpretation of the death of Christ necessarily involves the idea of his priesthood. This assumes that when a person uses a metaphor (e.g. sacrifice) he inevitably has all aspects of the picture in mind. It is clearly not the case. We cannot resist the impression that those who claim to find a priestly view of Jesus in other parts of the NT have imported the idea from Hebrews and read it back into these passages.
