The name of our Lord in the Greek language is “Iésous” (Ἰησοῦς), and his Greek name has absolutely nothing to do with the name of the pagan god Zeus. These two names may sound similar, but they are entirely different. It’s like the English words ‘to, two, and too,’ or ‘there, their, and they’re’—sets of three words that all sound the same, but they are spelled differently and mean entirely different things.
Solomon did not ask for money, or power, or health. Instead, he asked for a ‘discerning heart to govern [God’s] people and to distinguish between right and wrong’ (1 Kings 3:9). YeHoVaH was pleased with Solomon’s request. ‘God said to him, ‘Since you have asked for this and not for long life or wealth for yourself, nor have asked for the death of your enemies but for discernment in administering justice, I will do what you have asked. I will give you a wise and discerning heart, so that there will never have been anyone like you, nor will there ever be’” (1 Kings 3:11-12).
