The hexagram or Star of David, which became a symbol of Judaism in the modern period and was placed on the flag of Israel in 1948, has its origins in 14th century depictions of the Seal of Solomon. The title refers to the legendary Seal of Solomon, a ring that supposedly gave King Solomon the power to speak to animals. In reference to that incident, Solomon said, What profit is there to a man in all his labor wherein he laboureth under the sun?

Crafted uniquely in the Land of Israel reading about the miracles that took place in Egypt (Psalms 105:32-33). For great interest, amusement and relaxation - in short, for unalloyed pleasurel - let nothing stop you from getting hold of a copy. Believe me, I am not mistakenly assigning human properties to animals: on the contrary, I am showing you what an enormous animal inheritance remains in man, to this day.Le volpi non sono affatto astute come si pensa, le tortore, comunemente ritenute buone, possono essere in realtà più feroci dei lupi. His relentless steps to follow the animals of his current observation often brought him into the most ridiculous situations, I have no doubt the city of Altenberg had a very different opinion from my own on Lorenz, probably more along the lines of a madman than a pioneer. En lo más profundo de mi ser me sorprendo de que sea posible entrar en una relación de tanta confianza con un ave que vive en libertad, y tengo la sensación de que este hecho constituye algo extrañamente consolador o satisfactorio, como si por él se pusiera de nuevo a nuestro alcance una pequeña porción del Paraíso del que fuimos expulsados. If the scenes from a book stay with you for decades then it is a sign that the book must be really good.

L'anello di Re Salomone è un libro che non dovrebbe mancare nella biblioteca di una persona che, oltre ad amare la lettura, ama anche gli animali. Did you know that, when it comes to combat, a turkey fights like a wolf while a peacock fights like a panther? Insomma, per quanto ci sono state delle parti che ho gradito di più, in generale non ho trovato il libro interessante e ho fatto parecchia fatica a finirlo.

I don't think I've ever found such a profound respect for someone in a book as I have for Lorenz in reading "King Solomon's Ring". and is similarly referenced by the third-century Jewish magical text Sefer HaRazim, [5] and an aggadic section of the Tractate Gittin within the Babylonian Talmud as well. Konrad is also given to making rather absolute statements about nature and animals, a fair number of which have in the intervening decades been proved simply wrong, which makes the reader wonder about the others. The majority of pages are undamaged with some creasing or tearing, and pencil underlining of text, but this is minimal. Insegnano molto però anche sugli uomini, su quel rapporto con la natura che hanno perso, su quanto hanno dimenticato e quanto invece dovrebbero recuperare.
