1 Kings 10:22 (HCSB)
for the king had ships of Tarshish at sea with Hiram's fleet, and once every three years the ships of Tarshish would arrive bearing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks.
sorry for the slight inter missive interruption for the moment, but there is somewhat of an error i believe that needed perspective.
no, not apes. sorry.
should read a bird from each gender if i remember correctly.
As in
"look at the birds how they neither sow......
again, forgive me for the interruption.
Blessings Always.
