Was King Solomon a wise ruler, a savvy trader, or just history’s first brand-builder? In this bonus episode, we unpack the Solomon story—gold-covered Temples, suspiciously good PR, and zero outside sources. From trade routes to tall tales, we ask: how much of Solomon’s legacy was historical... and how much was just really good marketing? #HistoryPodcast #Solomon #BibleHistory #AncientIsrael #TempleOfJerusalem #InfluencerOrigins #BiblicalHistory #WisdomOrSpin
