It does not say that Solomon died at the age of 60 in the Bible. Most historians believe he was around the age of 80 when he died. According to Jewish tradition, he died at the age of 52.

The Bible does not specifically mention the age at which Solomon died. The book of Kings mentions that he reigned for 40 years and then died, but it does not give his exact age at death.

How old was Boaz when he died?

The Bible does not say, but because this marriage of Ruth and Boaz was blessed by God and their grandson David was a man after God's own heart, I think it can be safely assumed that Boaz died at a ripe old age.

Did Solomon have children?

NO. The Authorized Bible does not mention Solomon and the Queen of Sheba having sexual relations or having a child together, let alone having "a son". 2Chronicles 9:12 states:- "And King Solomon himself gave the queen of Sheba all her delight for which she had asked, besides [the value of] what she brought to the king. So she turned about and went to her own land, she together with her servants". *** There are some traditions held by different religious groups who believe that where the Bible says, "And King Solomon himself gave the queen of Sheba all her delight for which she had asked..." this meant that she asked him to have sex with her. The Bible clearly states that she received gifts from Solomon that surpassed the value of the gifts she had brought for him and then, "...So she turned about and went to her own land, she together with her servants". She is not mentioned again as having any other connection with Solomon, or of having his child. *** Besides, the Bible informs us, at 1Kings 11:3- "And he (Solomon) came to have seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines; and his wives gradually inclined his heart." With over 1000 women to keep Solomon occupied, he would have been comitting adultery with the Queen of Sheba. Any child of their union would have died, like the first child of his father, David and Bath-sheba, his mother, (who was still the wife of Uriah) because the child was conceived before she and David were married.

How was King Solomon buried?

It isn't known what was the cause of his death. The Bible records only that he 'slept with his fathers.' No, the Bible does not say. But according to the Quran: Quran 34:14 When Solomon was to die, he was standing watching the work of his (Jinn) slaves while reclining on his cane. There he silently passed away, but did not fall. He remained in this position, for days and the Jinns thought that he was still alive watching them work, and so they kept working extra days. But the termites were eating at the cane all these days so that the body of Sulayman fell after forty days. It was thereafter that the Jinn (along with all humans) fell in their hands that they did not know more than God had allotted them to know.

The Bible encourages discipline but also emphasizes love and nurturing in raising children.

Did King Solomon die a pauper?

The Bible credits Solomon as ruling a magnificent empire from opulent palaces that won the admiration even of the legendary Queen of Sheba. According to the Bible, he was still king at the time of his death, so surely not a pauper. History can add nothing to the biblical account, because there is no evidence that Solomon ever existed. Archaeologists say that at the time of Solomon, Israel and Judah were still sparsely populated and impoverished regions, and that Solomon could not have been the wealthy king portrayed in the Bible. They say that, if he did exist, he would have been more like a warlord than a king - not a pauper, but not the extravagant monarch of an opulent empire.
