Ethiopian Status and Value

The Emperor of Ethiopia is one of Solomon's children.  The first born and eldest son of Solomon.  This blood line provides great genetics.  It is also says that God has given Queen of Ethiopia all the glory and riches that she deserves.  

When a rich Ethiopian merchant, Tamrin, travels and sees the wealth and especially the wisdom of Solomon the King he retreats back to Ethiopia to tell the Queen of his news.  After many discussions of Solomon the Queen decides that she would like to go see Solomon's wisdom for herself.  She is seeking the same wisdom, joy, and peace that is amongst the country of Judah and Jerusalem.  It also says that when she embarks on her journey that her heart has confidence in God.  This nation should receives God's blessings.  

Finally, when the Queen arrives she realizes Ethiopia's potential.  In order to gain all the wisdom and riches Solomon strongly points out that one must follow God.  The God of Israel is who they will follow now, "From this moment I will not worship the sun, but will worship the creator of the sun, the God of Israel."  The Queen says this with her true understanding.  Hence forth, from this point on Ethiopia has reached status and value.
