Shlomo Hamelech

What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Yoel Gold’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

to a question I want to share from Rabbi Leseger. He once asked that wrote three sefarim, right? He wrote Mishlei, Koheles, and Shir Hashirim. What's really interesting is that in Koheles and Mishlei, introduces himself ben Dovid ben Dovid melech Yerushalayim. He was melech. He tells us who he was, his lineage, his father, his yichus, and what he did for a living. He was king of Yerushalayim. In in Shir Hashirim, all he says is Shir Hashirim Asher l'Shlomo. And he goes straight into Shir Hashirim without mentioning his yichus, the way he does it in Mishlei and Koheles and his other sefarim.
