Note: The salmons ascend rivers and penetrate to their head                streams to spawn. They are remarkably strong fishes,                and will even leap over considerable falls which lie in                the way of their progress. The common salmon has been                known to grow to the weight of seventy-five pounds;                more generally it is from fifteen to twenty-five                pounds. Young salmon are called parr, peal, smolt, and                grilse. Among the true salmons are:          {Black salmon}, or {Lake salmon}, the namaycush.          {Dog salmon}, a salmon of Western North America             ({Oncorhynchus keta}).          {Humpbacked salmon}, a Pacific-coast salmon ({Oncorhynchus             gorbuscha}).          {King salmon}, the quinnat.          {Landlocked salmon}, a variety of the common salmon (var.             {Sebago}), long confined in certain lakes in consequence             of obstructions that prevented it from returning to the             sea. This last is called also {dwarf salmon}.          Note: Among fishes of other families which are locally and                erroneously called salmon are: the pike perch, called                {jack salmon}; the spotted, or southern, squeteague;                the cabrilla, called {kelp salmon}; young pollock,                called {sea salmon}; and the California yellowtail.          2.

Acid \Ac"id\, n.       1. A sour substance.          2. (Chem.) One of a class of compounds, generally but not             always distinguished by their sour taste, solubility in             water, and reddening of vegetable blue or violet colors.             They are also characterized by the power of destroying the             distinctive properties of alkalies or bases, combining             with them to form salts, at the same time losing their own             peculiar properties. They all contain hydrogen, united             with a more negative element or radical, either alone, or             more generally with oxygen, and take their names from this             negative element or radical. Those which contain no oxygen             are sometimes called {hydracids} in distinction from the             others which are called {oxygen acids} or {oxacids}.          Note: In certain cases, sulphur, selenium, or tellurium may                take the place of oxygen, and the corresponding                compounds are called respectively {sulphur acids} or                {sulphacids}, {selenium acids}, or {tellurium acids}.                When the hydrogen of an acid is replaced by a positive                element or radical, a salt is formed, and hence acids                are sometimes named as salts of hydrogen; as hydrogen                nitrate for nitric acid, hydrogen sulphate for                sulphuric acid, etc. In the old chemistry the name acid                was applied to the oxides of the negative or                nonmetallic elements, now sometimes called anhydrides.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Salmon       shady; or Zalmon (q.v.), a hill covered with dark forests, south       of Shechem, from which Abimelech and his men gathered wood to       burn that city (Judg. 9:48). In Ps. 68:14 the change from war to       peace is likened to snow on the dark mountain, as some interpret       the expression. Others suppose the words here mean that the       bones of the slain left unburied covered the land, so that it       seemed to be white as if covered with snow. The reference,       however, of the psalm is probably to Josh. 11 and 12. The       scattering of the kings and their followers is fitly likened       unto the snow-flakes rapidly falling on the dark Salmon. It is       the modern Jebel Suleiman.

Shalman       an Assyrian king (Hos. 10:14), identified with Shalmaneser II.       (Sayce) or IV. (Lenormant), the successor of Pul on the throne       of Assyria (B.C. 728). He made war against Hoshea, the king of       Israel, whom he subdued and compelled to pay an annual tribute.       Hoshea, however, soon after rebelled against his Assyrian       conquerer. Shalmaneser again marched against Samaria, which,       after a siege of three years, was taken (2 Kings 17:3-5; 18:9)       by Sargon (q.v.). A revolution meantime had broken out in       Assyria, and Shalmaneser was deposed. Sargon usurped the vacant       throne. Schrader thinks that this is probably the name of a king       of Moab mentioned on an inscription of Tiglath-pileser as       Salamanu.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Solomon       peaceful, (Heb. Shelomoh), David's second son by Bathsheba,       i.e., the first after their legal marriage (2 Sam. 12). He was       probably born about B.C. 1035 (1 Chr. 22:5; 29:1). He succeeded       his father on the throne in early manhood, probably about       sixteen or eighteen years of age. Nathan, to whom his education       was intrusted, called him Jedidiah, i.e., "beloved of the Lord"       (2 Sam. 12:24, 25). He was the first king of Israel "born in the       purple." His father chose him as his successor, passing over the       claims of his elder sons: "Assuredly Solomon my son shall reign       after me." His history is recorded in 1 Kings 1-11 and 2 Chr.       1-9. His elevation to the throne took place before his father's       death, and was hastened on mainly by Nathan and Bathsheba, in       consequence of the rebellion of Adonijah (1 Kings 1:5-40).       During his long reign of forty years the Hebrew monarchy gained       its highest splendour. This period has well been called the       "Augustan age" of the Jewish annals. The first half of his reign       was, however, by far the brighter and more prosperous; the       latter half was clouded by the idolatries into which he fell,       mainly from his heathen intermarriages (1 Kings 11:1-8; 14:21,       31).                Before his death David gave parting instructions to his son (1       Kings 2:1-9; 1 Chr. 22:7-16; 28). As soon as he had settled       himself in his kingdom, and arranged the affairs of his       extensive empire, he entered into an alliance with Egypt by the       marriage of the daughter of Pharaoh (1 Kings 3:1), of whom,       however, nothing further is recorded. He surrounded himself with       all the luxuries and the external grandeur of an Eastern       monarch, and his government prospered. He entered into an       alliance with Hiram, king of Tyre, who in many ways greatly       assisted him in his numerous undertakings. (See {HIRAM}.)                For some years before his death David was engaged in the       active work of collecting materials (1 Chr. 29:6-9; 2 Chr.       2:3-7) for building a temple in Jerusalem as a permanent abode       for the ark of the covenant. He was not permitted to build the       house of God (1 Chr. 22:8); that honour was reserved to his son       Solomon. (See {TEMPLE}.)                After the completion of the temple, Solomon engaged in the       erection of many other buildings of importance in Jerusalem and       in other parts of his kingdom. For the long space of thirteen       years he was engaged in the erection of a royal palace on Ophel       (1 Kings 7:1-12). It was 100 cubits long, 50 broad, and 30 high.       Its lofty roof was supported by forty-five cedar pillars, so       that the hall was like a forest of cedar wood, and hence       probably it received the name of "The House of the Forest of       Lebanon." In front of this "house" was another building, which       was called the Porch of Pillars, and in front of this again was       the "Hall of Judgment," or Throne-room (1 Kings 7:7; 10:18-20; 2       Chr. 9:17-19), "the King's Gate," where he administered justice       and gave audience to his people. This palace was a building of       great magnificence and beauty. A portion of it was set apart as       the residence of the queen consort, the daughter of Pharaoh.       From the palace there was a private staircase of red and scented       sandal wood which led up to the temple.                Solomon also constructed great works for the purpose of       securing a plentiful supply of water for the city (Eccl. 2:4-6).       He then built Millo (LXX., "Acra") for the defence of the city,       completing a line of ramparts around it (1 Kings 9:15, 24;       11:27). He erected also many other fortifications for the       defence of his kingdom at various points where it was exposed to       the assault of enemies (1 Kings 9:15-19; 2 Chr. 8:2-6). Among       his great undertakings must also be mentioned the building of       Tadmor (q.v.) in the wilderness as a commercial depot, as well       as a military outpost.                During his reign Palestine enjoyed great commercial       prosperity. Extensive traffic was carried on by land with Tyre       and Egypt and Arabia, and by sea with Spain and India and the       coasts of Africa, by which Solomon accumulated vast stores of       wealth and of the produce of all nations (1 Kings 9:26-28;       10:11, 12; 2 Chr. 8:17, 18; 9:21). This was the "golden age" of       Israel. The royal magnificence and splendour of Solomon's court       were unrivalled. He had seven hundred wives and three hundred       concubines, an evidence at once of his pride, his wealth, and       his sensuality. The maintenance of his household involved       immense expenditure. The provision required for one day was       "thirty measures of fine flour, and threescore measures of meal,       ten fat oxen, and twenty oxen out of the pastures, and an       hundred sheep, beside harts, and roebucks, and fallow-deer, and       fatted fowl" (1 Kings 4:22, 23).                Solomon's reign was not only a period of great material       prosperity, but was equally remarkable for its intellectual       activity. He was the leader of his people also in this uprising       amongst them of new intellectual life. "He spake three thousand       proverbs: and his songs were a thousand and five. And he spake       of trees, from the cedar tree that is in Lebanon even unto the       hyssop that springeth out of the wall: he spake also of beasts,       and of fowl, and of creeping things, and of fishes" (1 Kings       4:32, 33).                His fame was spread abroad through all lands, and men came       from far and near "to hear the wisdom of Solomon." Among others       thus attracted to Jerusalem was "the queen of the south" (Matt.       12:42), the queen of Sheba, a country in Arabia Felix. "Deep,       indeed, must have been her yearning, and great his fame, which       induced a secluded Arabian queen to break through the immemorial       custom of her dreamy land, and to put forth the energy required       for braving the burdens and perils of so long a journey across a       wilderness. Yet this she undertook, and carried it out with       safety." (1 Kings 10:1-13; 2 Chr. 9:1-12.) She was filled with       amazement by all she saw and heard: "there was no more spirit in       her." After an interchange of presents she returned to her       native land.                But that golden age of Jewish history passed away. The bright       day of Solomon's glory ended in clouds and darkness. His decline       and fall from his high estate is a sad record. Chief among the       causes of his decline were his polygamy and his great wealth.       "As he grew older he spent more of his time among his       favourites. The idle king living among these idle women, for       1,000 women, with all their idle and mischievous attendants,       filled the palaces and pleasure-houses which he had built (1       Kings 11:3), learned first to tolerate and then to imitate their       heathenish ways. He did not, indeed, cease to believe in the God       of Israel with his mind. He did not cease to offer the usual       sacrifices in the temple at the great feasts. But his heart was       not right with God; his worship became merely formal; his soul,       left empty by the dying out of true religious fervour, sought to       be filled with any religious excitement which offered itself.       Now for the first time a worship was publicly set up amongst the       people of the Lord which was not simply irregular or forbidden,       like that of Gideon (Judg. 8:27), or the Danites (Judg. 18:30,       31), but was downright idolatrous." (1 Kings 11:7; 2 Kings       23:13.)                This brought upon him the divine displeasure. His enemies       prevailed against him (1 Kings 11:14-22, 23-25, 26-40), and one       judgment after another fell upon the land. And now the end of       all came, and he died, after a reign of forty years, and was       buried in the city of David, and "with him was buried the       short-lived glory and unity of Israel." "He leaves behind him       but one weak and worthless son, to dismember his kingdom and       disgrace his name."                "The kingdom of Solomon," says Rawlinson, "is one of the most       striking facts in the Biblical history. A petty nation, which       for hundreds of years has with difficulty maintained a separate       existence in the midst of warlike tribes, each of which has in       turn exercised dominion over it and oppressed it, is suddenly       raised by the genius of a soldier-monarch to glory and       greatness. An empire is established which extends from the       Euphrates to the borders of Egypt, a distance of 450 miles; and       this empire, rapidly constructed, enters almost immediately on a       period of peace which lasts for half a century. Wealth,       grandeur, architectural magnificence, artistic excellence,       commercial enterprise, a position of dignity among the great       nations of the earth, are enjoyed during this space, at the end       of which there is a sudden collapse. The ruling nation is split       in twain, the subject-races fall off, the pre-eminence lately       gained being wholly lost, the scene of struggle, strife,       oppression, recovery, inglorious submission, and desperate       effort, re-commences.", Historical Illustrations.

Solomon, Song of       called also, after the Vulgate, the "Canticles." It is the "song       of songs" (1:1), as being the finest and most precious of its       kind; the noblest song, "das Hohelied," as Luther calls it. The       Solomonic authorship of this book has been called in question,       but evidences, both internal and external, fairly establish the       traditional view that it is the product of Solomon's pen. It is       an allegorical poem setting forth the mutual love of Christ and       the Church, under the emblem of the bridegroom and the bride.       (Compare Matt. 9:15; John 3:29; Eph. 5:23, 27, 29; Rev. 19:7-9;       21:2, 9; 22:17.
