      It was not right to offer sacrifices in any place but where
      the tabernacle and ark were; and wherever they were, whether
      on a high place or a plain, sacrifices might be lawfully
      offered, previously to building of the temple.  The tabernacle
      was now at Gibeon, (2 Ch 3 1:3,) which was therefore called the
      great high place; whither we find Solomon, without censure,
      repaired to sacrifice.

      "tavern-keepers:"  see on Jos 2:1.
    
       * Jud 11:1
      Had these women been harlots, it is not likely that they would
      have dared to appear before Solomon; nor is it likely that
      such persons would have been permitted in the reign of David.
      Their husbands might at this time have been following their
      necessary occupations in distant parts.

      This was apparently a very strange decision; but Solomon saw
      that the only way to discover the real mother was by the
      affection and tenderness should would necessarily shew to her
      offspring.  The plan was tried, and succeeded; and it was a
      proof of his sound judgment, penetration, and acquaintance
      with the human heart, or rather, of his extraordinary and
      supernatural wisdom.  See ver. 28.  The two following
      instances are in some faint manner to be compared to Solomon's
      decision, inasmuch as they also work upon the human
      sympathies.  Suetonius, in his Life of the emperor Claudian,
      tells us, that this emperor discovered a woman to be the real
      mother of a young man, whom she refused to acknowledge, by
      commanding her to marry him, the proofs being doubtful on both
      sides; for, rather than commit incest, she confessed the
      truth.  Diodorus Siculus also informs us, that Ariopharnes,
      king of Thrace, being appointed to decided between three young
      men, each of whom professed to be the son of the deceased king
      of the Cimmerians, and claimed the succession, discovered the
      real son by ordering each to shoot an arrow into the dead body
      of the king:  two of them did this without hesitation; but the
      real son of the deceased monarch refused.
