Solomon (Hebrewשלמה Shəlom:o, connected with שָׁלֵם shalem "whole, complete, intact" or שָׁלוֹם shalom "peace"), also called Jedidiah (Hebrewיְדִידְיָהּ‎ Yedidyah), lived in the 10th century BC and was, according to the Bible account, the third ruler of the united Kingdom of Israel after Saul and David. According to the Bible account, he had the first temple built in Jerusalem on the Temple Mount. The visit of the legendary Queen of Sheba (1 Kings 10:1-13 LUT, 2 Chron. 9:1-9:12 LUT), reported in the Bible, also falls into this period. According to the temple legend of the Freemasons, the master builder of the temple was Hiram Abif, who, according to Rudolf Steiner's statements, was reborn at the turn of time as Lazarus-John and later as the high initiate Christian Rosenkreutz. The apocryphal Testament of Solomon, which is considered the oldest Christian demonology, also refers to the time of the building of the temple. Later Jewish tradition also relates Solomon to Lilith.
