As I read the Songs of Solomon, I can't help wondering if King Solomon was dark in complexion or something, when he said,

"Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept." (Songs of Solomon 1:6)

Was he speaking metaphorically or he was actually black in complexion? Why did he say "because I am black"?

Like it or not, the legendary King Solomon was the son of an African woman. His mother Bathsheba was a Gilonite… which was one of the Canaanite tribes that Judah didn’t remove from the land. The Gilonites and the Hittites were among several Canaanite tribes that lived among Judah.

For those that are rusty on Biblical lineage, the Hittites were the sons of Heth, which were the sons of Canaan, who was the son of Ham. The Gilonites also descended from Ham as well. If you’d like to read more in depth about Solomon’s mother Bathsheba and her Hittite husband Uriah, please check out the following articles:

Solomon’s lineage is important because it goes a long way in explaining why he had bushy locks of black hair (Song of Solomon 5:11), and had an attraction toward Hamite women throughout his life.
