In today's episode, we unravel the legacy of the Biblical Bad [BLEEP] that is the Queen of Sheba.
a figure shrouded in mystery and legend, some hail her as a holy founder, symbol of a nation, guardian of the mythical Ark of the Covenant, and founder of a dynasty that continues to today. Others paint her as a a demon, a djinn, and a temptress with a dark side.
But we won't settle for just one narrative. No, we're delving into four distinct retellings from various cultures and texts – Christian, Judaic, Islamic, and the juiciest of them all, the Ethiopian narrative. Each offers its own twists, turns, and interpretations, leaving you to parse out your own understanding of this enigmatic, historical figure.
