Solomon had the ability (by God) to teach uncommon lessons through commonplace things.
'He also spoke 3,000 proverbs, and his songs were 1,005. He spoke of trees, from the cedar that is in Lebanon to the hyssop that grows out of the wall. He spoke also of beasts, and of birds, and of reptiles, and of fish. ' — 1 Kings 4:32-33
