1 Kgs 3:161 Kgs 3:18
And the one woman said, O my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house.
"And on the third day after I was delivered, this woman also gave birth; and we were alone; there was no one else with us in the house, but we two were in the house.'" — The timeline: both women gave birth within days of each other, *alone with each other in the house* (*ve-'ein nakri itanu ba-bayit ki im-anachnu shetayim*). The *isolation* is crucial—there are no witnesses to what happened. The narrative establishes the evidentiary problem: two claims, no external witnesses.
