Abstract

This study examines the theological and moral dimensions of the Book of 2 Samuel by highlighting issues such as sin, repentance, justice, leadership, and its ethical implications for modern society. The aim of this study is to explore how the story of King David, with its moral complexity and the consequences of each of his actions, can serve as a reflective guide in dealing with contemporary ethical challenges. The method used is biblical hermeneutics combined with literature studies to interpret texts in their historical, social, and cultural contexts. This approach allows for a more comprehensive understanding of the theological message of the Book of 2 Samuel and its relevance to life today. The results of the study show that the value of sincere repentance, divine justice, and responsible leadership are universal principles that transcend the context of the times. These values are relevant in responding to modern problems such as abuse of power, integrity crises, and structural corruption. The novelty of this research lies in the effort to reinterpret ancient theological and moral teachings as an applicative ethical framework to strengthen moral leadership and ethical awareness in modern societ

Abstract

The crisis of integrity, ethical disorientation, and the declining quality of strategic decision-making in contemporary leadership demand a robust and transhistorical normative foundation. The figure of King Solomon in ancient Israelite tradition represents a prototype of leadership legitimized by divine wisdom, making it critically relevant for scholarly examination. This study addresses the problem of how the construction of Solomon’s character and the praxis of his wisdom in Old Testament texts can be transformed into a conceptual paradigm for modern leadership without falling into historical romanticism. The objective of this research is to formulate a theoretical leadership model grounded in biblical wisdom through an analysis of Solomon’s character, theological orientation, and decision-making patterns. The method employed is a theological hermeneutical approach integrated with interdisciplinary literature studies, including leadership theory, public ethics, and Old Testament theology. The analysis focuses on key narratives that portray the judicial, administrative, and spiritual dimensions of Solomon’s leadership. The findings indicate that Solomon’s wisdom is theocentric, deliberative, and oriented toward distributive justice, thereby shaping an integrative and visionary model of leadership. The relevance of these findings lies in their capacity to offer a normative framework for leadership formation rooted in transcendent morality while remaining adaptive to modern social complexity. The novelty of this study resides in the formulation of a hermeneutical reconstruction model of Solomonic wisdom as a normative-strategic paradigm for the development of contemporary leadership theory based on sacred texts.
