1 Kings 3:18 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 3:18

And it came to pass, the third day after I was delivered
Of a child, as before expressed: that this woman was delivered also;
of another child; and being both of the same sex, both sons, as afterwards appears; and being so nearly of an age, it was difficult to distinguish them; and we [were] together; [there was] no stranger with us in the house,
save we two in the house;
so that in this trial no evidences could be produced on either side.

1 Kings 3:18 In-Context

16 A short time later two prostitutes came to the king and stood in front of him.
17 One woman said to him, "Sir, this woman and I live in the same house. I gave birth [to a son] while she was with me in the house.
18 Two days later this woman also gave birth [to a son]. We were alone. No one else was with us. Just the two of us were in the house.
19 That night this woman's son died because she rolled over on top of him.
20 So she got up during the night and took my son, who was beside me, while I was asleep. She held him in her arms. Then she laid her dead son in my arms.
