8 Judgment of Solomon
Judgment of Solomon
The Biblical parable of the Judgment of Solomon is recounted in 1 Kings 3:16-28. It tells of two young women who came to King Solomon for wise counsel in settling a dispute. Both women claimed to be the mother of a baby they presented.
After deliberating on the issue, Solomon called for a sword. He declared that there was only one fair solution: the child must be split in two, each woman receiving half of the child. Upon hearing this stunning verdict, the boy's true mother exclaimed, "give the baby to her, just don't kill him!" The sociopathic imposter cried out, "It shall be neither mine nor yours—divide it!"
The king had precipitously discovered the true nature of the impasse and declared the first mother as the true mother. A genuine, loving mother would rather surrender her baby to another than have it in any way hurt. He presented her the baby. King Solomon's judgment is considered an example of profound wisdom.
In this instance splitting the difference would in no way address the legitimate concerns of the parties. This parable is the origin of the phrase “splitting the baby” when making concessions between two hardened positions. In most cases narrowly focused concessions also do not address the legitimate concerns of the parties. We need to think creatively and expansively along multiple dimensions of concerns, interests, and needs in order to craft wise agreements.
