Solomon's wisdom
Fabled judicial insight
Solomon's wisdom refers to exceptional judgment, discernment, or insight, especially in resolving difficult disputes.
The phrase alludes to the biblical King Solomon, who famously proposed cutting a baby in half to identify its true mother—knowing the real mother would rather give up her child than see it harmed.
It would take Solomon's wisdom to settle this custody battle.
