Swift and Certain ; King Solomon the Wise


King
Swift and Certain.

"The third Jachin is the right one of two pillars in front of Solomon's temple; the left one is named Boaz (1 Kings 7:21).

The name Jachin comes from the word kun (kun 964), meaning established, prepared, fixed, certain. Derivatives: ken (ken 964a), right, true; ken (ken 964b), thus, so; makon (makon 964c), place - mostly referring to God's dwelling place; mekona (mekona 964d), base - almost only used in 1 Kings 7 where it refers to the bases of the bronze lavers.

Jachin is the active form of kun (kun 964), and means He Will Establish, or He Will Give Certainty." - link.

Psalm 127 of Solomon.
Psalm 72 of Solomon. reading with transcript.
"
4He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor*. [This is in contrast to supporting the oppressor]
5They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all generations. [they do not fear the corrupt worm slave pet]
6He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers [that] water the earth. [from a high hight of a true king]
7In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth"

"
11Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve him.
12For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and [him] that hath no helper.
13He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy.
14He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight.
15And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba: prayer also shall be made for him continually; [and] daily shall he be praised."

Basically King Solomon the wise was a socialist and champion of justice and the poor and oppressed; and distroyer of those critical to his agenda like a regin of terror. In this was justice is enforced and said to be good thing; insanity is throw away and all wonder at such power over evil and criminality. For he is King not a slave. ...It was swift and certain too....

*probably refers to nobles and officials being thrown off the cliffs into the vale of Hinnom.
