Lemuel (biblical king)

Lemuel and his mother

Lemuel (Hebrew: לְמוּאֵל Ləmū’ēl, "to him, El") is the name of a biblical king mentioned in Proverbs 31:1 and 4, but whose identity remains uncertain.[1] Speculation exists and proposes that Lemuel should be identified with Solomon or Hezekiah,[2] while others think he may be a king of Massa.[3]
