Mat 12:42 “The queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a greater than Solomon is here.
The Pharisees had asked Jesus to show them a sign to prove he was the Messiah. By doing so, they were not sincere because they had already decided that he was not. They had already seen the miracles he had performed but they did not consider these sufficient proof for that. They wanted an ultimate sign to convince them to believe in him.
Jesus gave them the sign of the Queen of Sheba. The Queen embarked on a long journey after hearing of Solomon’s great wisdom, riches and the splendour of his kingdom. She sought to know the truth from Solomon (1Ki 10:1-13). Therefore, the Queen from the south will rise up at the last judgement and condemn those Jews for not accepting and listening to the one who was greater than Solomon.
Jesus is wiser than the wisest man that has ever lived ; he is wiser than Solomon; he is the wisdom of God. He is owner of everything in heaven and under the heavens. He is King of kings and the Lord of lords. He is omniscient , omnipresent and omnipotent. *The one greater than Solomon is here*
