وَلَمْ يُجْبِرْ سُلَيْمانُ أيّاً مِنْ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ عَلَى أنْ يَكُونوا عَبِيداً لَدَيهِ، بَلْ كانُوا جُنُوداً، وَمَسْؤُولِينَ إدارِيِّينَ، وَضُبّاطاً، وَمَسْؤُولِينَ كِباراً، وَقادَةَ مَركَباتٍ، وفرساناً.

شرح للأطفال

Imagine you're playing a game where you have a team. Solomon didn't make his own team members do all the hard work; instead, he let them be the leaders and protectors of the team. It's like having your best friends be the captains of your soccer team, not the ones setting up the field.
