Words of King Lemuel: As with Agur in Proverbs 30, we know nothing about King Lemuel. He is not on any recorded list of the kings of Judah or Israel, so he was probably a pagan king who put his trust in Yahweh, Israel's covenant God, and through the fear of the Lord learned wisdom.

The following verses speak of her character and activity, giving Lemuel an idea of the woman he should seek out and appreciate.
