1:1; Ecclesiastes 2:1) ... and therefore there came, its in the confessions of the preacher, the great
retribution.
Solomon, Wisdom Of
[Wisdom, The, Of Solomon, BOOK OF]
Solomons Porch
[Palace; Temple].
Solomons Servants
(Children OF). (Ezra 2:55,58; Nehemiah 7:57,60) The persons thus named appear in the lists
of the exiles who returned from the captivity. They were the descendants of the Canaanites who
were reduced by Solomon to the helot state, and compelled to labor in the king’s stone-quarries
and in building his palaces and cities. (1 Kings 5:13,14; 9:20,21; 2 Chronicles 8:7,8) They appear
to have formed a distinct order, inheriting probably the same functions and the same skill as their
ancestors.

Son
The term “son” is used in Scripture language to imply almost any kind of descent or succession,
as ben shanah, “son of a year,” i.e. a year old; ben kesheth, “son of a bow,” i.e. an arrow. The word
bar is often found in the New Testament in composition, as Bar-timaeus.
Soothsayer
[Divination]
Sop
In eastern lands where our table utensils are unknown, the meat, with the broth, is brought upon
the table in a large dish, and is eaten usually by means of pieces of bread clipped into the common
dish. The bread so dipped is called. “It was such a piece of bread a sop dipped in broth that Jesus
gave to Judas, (John 13:26) and again, in Matt 26:23 It is said “he that dippeth his hand with me
in the dish,” i.e. to make a sop by dipping a piece of bread into the central dish.
Sopater
(saviour of his father), son or Pyrrhus or Berea, was one of the companions of St. Paul on his
return from Greece into Asia. (Acts 20:4) (A.D. 55.)
Sophereth
(writing). “The children of Sophereth” were a family who returned from Babylon with
Zerubbabel among the descendants of Solomon’s servants. (Ezra 2:55; Nehemiah 7:57) (B.C. before
536.)
Sorcerer

Sorek
(red), The valley of, a wady in which lay the residence of Delilah. (Judges 16:4) It was possibly
nearer Gaza than any other of the chief Philistine cities, since thither Samson was taken after his
capture at Delilah’s house.
Sosipater
(saviour of his father), kinsman or fellow tribesman of St. Paul, (Romans 16:21) is probably
the same person as Sopater of Berea. (A.D. 54.)
