"Getting sawed in half by a magician" refers to a classic stage magic trick where a magician seemingly cuts a person, usually an assistant, in half using a large saw, creating the illusion that they are divided into two separate parts; it's a well-known trick that relies on clever misdirection and hidden compartments within the prop used to perform it
Would you be surprised if I told you that one of the most Christlike figures in the Bible is a prostitute ❓❓
It’s true. The story is found in 1 Kings 3:16-28. It’s usually tilted “Solomon’s Wisdom in Judgment,” but I think that title doesn’t get to the point. A better title would be “The Loving Prostitute.” Or maybe even better, “The Love of God Shines through a Prostitute.” Here’s the gist of the story:
Two prostitutes went to a king named Solomon. The first woman said that the other woman killed her own baby as she slept at night by rolling over him. She then says that that the woman woke up in the middle of the night, saw that she had killed her baby, and then swapped their babies. So, when the prostitute woke up, she found that a dead baby was lying next to her. But when she examined the dead baby, she realized that it didn’t look like her son. It was the other prostitute’s son.
But then the second prostitute replied that in fact it was the first woman who rolled over and suffocated her child. She woke up in the middle of the night and realized that she killed her baby. She then snuck over and swapped her dead baby for the living baby. When the second prostitute woke up, she realized there the baby next to her was dead, but that it didn’t look like her son. It was the other prostitute’s son.
Solomon listened to the two women tell their stories, but he didn’t know what to do. The two women had the exact same story and he didn’t know how to solve the problem. So, what did Solomon do next? He asked for a sword.
That escalated things quickly.
Solomon replied, “Divide the living boy in two; then give half to the one, and half to the other.”
One of the prostitutes pleaded, “Please, my lord, give her the living boy; certainly do not kill him!”
Surprisingly, the other prostitute demanded, “It shall be neither mine nor yours; divide it.”
Solomon knew then that the baby’s mother was the one who wanted to save the child
