Melachim Alef 10:6 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 10:6

And she said to the king
When she was a little come to herself:

it was a true report that I heard in mine own land of thy acts and of
thy wisdom;
which she was ready to call in question when she first heard it; at least she thought it was greatly exaggerated, but now she found it was strictly true.

Melachim Alef 10:6 In-Context

4 And when the Malkah of Sheva had seen kol chochmat Sh’lomo, and the Bais (Palace) that he had built,
5 And the ma’akhal (food) of his shulchan, and the moshav (seating) of his avadim (officials), and the ma’amad (station) of his attendants, and their robes, and his cupbearers, and his ascent by which he went up unto the Beis Hashem; there was no more ruach (breath) in her.
6 And she said to HaMelech, It was emes the report that I heard in mine own eretz of thy devarim and of thy chochmah.
7 Howbeit I believed not the devarim, until I came, and mine eyes had seen it; and, hinei, the half was not told me; thy chochmah and tov (prosperity) exceedeth the fame which I heard.
8 Ashrei are thy anashim; ashrei are these thy avadim, which stand continually before thee, and that hear thy chochmah.
