If some one take something which you regard as sacred and valuable, without you authorising him to take it, that is known as stealing. So they took the Ark of the Covenant, without asking King Solomon permission to do so, and so when he realize what was done, he pursued them in order to regain it, since he did not tell them to take it, whether it be your son, or your daughter, or your sister, or your brother, he or she has no right, to take anything from your house, without asking permission. If we are trying to make things clear for our own advancement in knowledge, there is no need to try to cover up the truth, after it burst out of the blessed earth of reasoning. If the Covenant contain the Laws which they said Moses wrote on the stone, then one of those laws said, thou shall not steal. Sheba was also caught stealing King Solomon's water, after she promised not to take anything from his house without asking, so after having a well spiced meal with wine and other delicious foods, she did promise King Solomon, that if she is caught stealing anything from his house, then she would have to surrender herself unto him for the purpose of mating. So water was placed in clear view for her to see it, and so in the middle of the night, when she thought that Solomon was sleeping, she got up on tipping toes, and stole King Solomon's water, and when Solomon caught her in the very act, and siad to her, you promised that you would not steal anything from my house, then she replied, it is only water, then he said unto her, water is the most precious substance upon the face of this earth, then she said unto him, you can do what you want with me, but let me drink this water, considering that she was burning up inside, from the very spicy foods. Do not allow any of your relatives to take anything out of your house without asking permission, it will become an established practice which you will have gtreat problem solving. So as a result of Sheba, Stealing King Solomon's water, Menelik was born, and he also find himself among those who stole away the ARK of the Covenant. Well, they could have asked for it intelligently, and the Creator could have put it in the heart of Solomon to say yes, you can take it, but to have taken it away secretly, that is what is know as stealing, from that time even until this time in which we live.
