In Part 3 of Beniyahu Ben Yehoyadah: Kohen and Warrior, we continue with the dramatic opening of Shlomo HaMelech’s reign and the final reckoning with the unresolved enemies of Dovid HaMelech. The episode begins with Beniyahu carrying out Shlomo’s command to kill Yoav, the powerful general who had fled to the Mizbeach, and explores the deeper meaning of why Yoav’s downfall was necessary for the kingdom to be stabilized. From there, Beniyahu is elevated to become the new general of the army, taking the place of Yoav as the trusted military arm of Shlomo HaMelech. The episode then turns to Shimi ben Geira, whose earlier rebellion against Dovid now reaches its conclusion when he violates Shlomo’s warning and is executed by Beniyahu.The second half of the episode shifts into one of the most mysterious and legendary parts of Shlomo HaMelech’s story: the search for the Shamir worm, the miraculous creature needed for the building of the Beis HaMikdash. This leads into the astonishing mission of Beniyahu Ben Yehoyadah as he captures Ashmedai, the king of the demons for King Shlomo. 00:00 - Intro00:42 - Beniyahu Ben Yehoyadah kills Yoav12:00 - Beniyahu becomes General of Army13:13 - Beniyahu kills Shimi Ben Geira37:40 - Beniyahu and the Shamir Worm46:38 - Beniyahu Ben Yehoyadah Captures Ashmedai
