The most important connection is the marriage between Sheba and Solomon because it shows the everlasting partnership with Ethiopia and Jerusalem. This reapplies what we talked about in class, about how Ethiopia is thought of as the Protector of Christianity. This marriage signifies this bounding between the two sacred places.
The Birth of the child is also significant because it signifies future for the two nations. The child and future king of Ethiopia sets out to find his father and further the relationship between Jerusalem and Ethiopia. Without this child, the connection might have been lost and the Ethiopia might not be as important to the Christian religion as is today.
